How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds - Page 8 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

cjracing15, that is a good looking truck! I like the 350 idea for sure and I only have one small suggestion (picky one)...remove or paint the white overspray on your fuel tank. Clean 4x4's from the 80's are hard to find and it appears you have one.

cjracing15 · 02-24-2007, 05:45 PM

Thanks for the praise on my 86. hiway what you see in the pic is the gas tank covers. The old guy I got the truck from painted them white

. I plan on painting them black after I do The 350 swap.

Heres something a little different.

86swb · 02-27-2007, 04:01 PM

Any more? A lot of good looking trucks on here so far.

Low84 · 02-27-2007, 05:46 PM

WOW! I could have sworn I had already posted my truck in here. Guess not.

I have since removed those hideous rear tires, and it looks a million times better. Brought the rear end about 2 1/2" down. Unfortunitely my camera took a dump.

I'll throw some vids in here too. I know its slow but we all start somewhere.

Here's one I have of mine.

Description: After about 10 months of the motor just sitting and about 5 months of being swapped from my 72 Nova into the truck, I was finally able to crank up the motor for the first time today since. After wiring up all of the MSD ignition we poured a little gas in the carb and it fired up like I just ran it moments before. And yes.. I was a little excited.

And here is a couple older, slightly rarer vids you might have not yet seen. These two vids were of a grudge race between G-OLD and an '03.

It looks killer at night with the HID's.

Donnylee · 03-04-2007, 12:58 PM

I am loving that red and black shorty! Nice ride!

Low84 · 03-04-2007, 02:48 PM

Here are some pics of box chevys a guy from our local frorum took of a local car show in Sout Padre Island:

Pics don't do this truck justice. I've seen it in person and it is simply awesome. Triple stage black, paint looks super deep.
