Title: NEW GUY FROM OKLAHOMA
Post by: LOW 1 TON on August 27, 2009, 12:24:14 pm
Whats up guys? I am new to the site but have been involved in sq body trucks for a while now. Currently I have a 88 r30 crewcab dually that is close to being finished but not quite done. I also have a 2000 GMC regular cab dually that I am working on, but that belongs on a different site. My 88 is a 454 tbi with a 4 speed, full airride front and rear, 22" alcoas all the way around including the rear inside wheels, one piece door windows, power mirror upgrade from a suburban, 5" dia side pipes, black leather and suede interior, 2 480 vi-air compressors, 15 gallons of air storage, all 1/2" gc valves, shaved cowl panel, 88-98 style cab lights, a/c that still works, and fully carpeted bed. I will try to post a picture hopefully it will work. Hope to repaint it in the next year or so. Also have a brushed stainless steering column and working on new dash with full autometer guages. Let me know what you think I like honesty.

WOW.  That is my honest opinion.  That truck is beautiful.  Welcome from Texas.  Why do you want to repaint it?

Thanks for the asist Captkaos someday I will get the hang of the whole pictures and words together thing. I am glad to be on this site I have been trying for awhile and could not get a e-mail back with approval finally I read and it wont work if you have Cox which is what we have at work, so I set it up at home. Anyway way to much info. I am looking for a member on here from Oklahoma as well maybe someone can help. His name is Ryan he owns a red short wide with a cowl hood, a super nice static drop looks like a bag job it is so low, also has started installing the one piece products window kit. His truck is running Coys five spoke wheels I think they are 20s in front and 22s in the rear. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for the comments and the welcome. I am going to repaint for a couple of reasons. 1st I want to do some debadging, 2nd when I installed the 89-91 suburban mirrors it left holes in my doors and I want them fixed, 3rd the paint on the truck is about 10 years old and when it was painted back then the door jams were never done so they need it bad. The paint on the truck is in great shape just ready to fix those issues and have a new look.
