Funny you mention that. My uncle got pulled over the other day for not having the side mirrors on his truck. Talk about not having anything better to do.

Looks good spr85GMC

87CustomDelux that is a sharp looking truck.

I was driving around today and came across a couple trucks

Scootin 81 C20 · 11-27-2009, 06:56 PM

That second one looks like a Sport package.

Chlsnk · 11-28-2009, 09:46 PM

I like the blue and white one. I'm a sucker for that color combo.

menace121978 · 11-30-2009, 10:17 AM

STOCKISH · 11-30-2009, 10:55 AM

Yeah, that blue and white is a hard color combo not to like. Just looks so good.

Its a 5 lugger but it saw its share of work. I hauled a lot of bikes, engines, frames, and parts in the back of it. I pulled a trailer with three bikes on it into AR.

These are the only pics I can find on this computer of that bike. My website has a lot on it www.coyotecustoms.com. The bike is called 040.

These are from an issue of Cruising Rider. Sorry for the size.

I liked the truck black but when I found out it was a factory Sport Package I had to get it back to original. I am in the process of that now. I am looking for a 2wd Blazer to paint flat black like my truck was so I can satisfy my old school fix. Thanks for the compliments on the bikes too.

Its hard to beat a softail. I always liked Harleys but in college I couldnt afford one and I start working on the Honda's, Kawasaki's, and Yamaha's and it turned into a big business for me. It treated me pretty well. I have a shop full of bikes that I never have time to ride. Maybe when my kids get a little older.

This is my 75 half step i built from the frame up from 2 trucks. Rebuilt 350 w/cam and headers/4 barrel. 350 trans. 12 bolt diff. w/3.07s. New brakes, wheels and tires. New suspension w/flip kit and 2.5in drop spindles. Took about a year and about $4000. Want to replace gears. 3.42 with posi. Also have a 454 out of a police car that might go in later along with air bags. And of coarse the trans and converter will need upgrading. The work never seems to end. The car in the background is a 71 chevelle being restored. Whats with the bikes? Are we running out of trucks? Name: 100_0973a.jpg
