well i mean look around....how many fleets do you see compared to steps...that's all im saying...i know when i first saw the truck i thought it was cool but the thing i noticed first was it was a stepside...pretty cool cause it's not the same old truck everyone else has.

Its ccol because of lots of reasons but in my eyes the step bed is less aerodynamic and takes away from the truck! I'll post pics of my progress as I go! I hope to take a nice truck and make an AWESOME truck!

This might not look like much progress
But you should have seen my shop a couple of monthes ago! Me and several of my buddies threw away 60 plus yards of crap! Now it time to get down to business! I am going to sell this bed if anyone is interested! I'd take 800 with the aluminum wing new tailgate aluminum bed cover and new chrome rear bumper!

Nice work
 I'm very interested in how you did that aluminum tonneau cover. I'm looking at something like that for my project. |

I didn't build it but it just had a rail around the inside of the bed and then a few cross supports! I am swapping to a fleetside bed! Kevin

I was thinking of a rail similar to that and the tonneau would slide into. Then I would have to fasten it with a few pins? or zeus fitting somehow? Joe |

67 chevemall,
I like the truck as is but I'll like it even better when it looks like my truck instead of Tom's. Kevin

Re: Look what I got back yesterday!
Its a 60 over 454 with merlin heads and intake 14 to 1 Wiseco domes Lunati pro mod rods steel crank roller cam. I ran this same motor in a pretty heavy 67 camaro injected on alcohol without Nos and it ran 9.20 at 143mph! I hope to run close to that in my truck on the motor but well into the 8's on the spray!
