OARNGESI · 11-03-2009, 05:07 AM

Looks like a nice start are you sure the headers will fit i had trouble with similar ones

bill c · 11-03-2009, 05:25 AM

i hope they fit. going to change the mounts to a newer year 75,to78. this will move the motor back about 1inch to 1 1/2. so it should be ok, we will see.

lookin good. i love the polished centerlines, it has been awhile since i have seen them used. What color do you plan on?

Hossjoe · 01-13-2010, 03:37 AM

Hey Bill,

I'm the guy you bought the tonneau cover from a couple months ago with the blue 86 stepside, which I finally got around to posting. The stance of you truck is sick...very sweet.

I got the interior out and trying to do as much as possible and still keep it on the road. Since I'm f*ing broke can't do too much yet anyway.

Later,
Ash

Sinister · 01-13-2010, 10:32 AM

Sick build. Keep it up.

Sorry it took so long to respond, i missed your question. I think satin black would look killer, but whatever color you decide on this will be a top notch truck.

im going with satin black. i think it would be only way to go. all black & polished aluminum. that the way im headed...

butternut1972 · 05-24-2010, 11:45 PM

It doesn't get much better than black and polished aluminum. I can't wait to see it. I will be following it closer now.
