Title: 83 K5 & 76 GMC & & &
Post by: GoatBeard on October 17, 2008, 05:34:29 pm
Here's my 83 K5.  It was pretty rough when I got it; it had been sittin' 10 years in a barn.  It cleaned up good.  One little dent in the front fender...

I put on a 4" lift with add-a-leafs in the rear and 33" tires. 

The add-a-leafs helped it a lot.  Still needs a couple of more inches in the back IMO.

Topless it sits just right in the rear!  Don't need no stinkin' top anyway!   ;D

Here's my 76 Sierra Grande!

It's pretty rough lookin' but I bought it 10 years ago with only 60k original miles from the original owner...  It's up to 110k miles now.

Added a 4" BDS suspension lift and 35" tires.

I found these the other day of my first truck so I scanned 'em (sorry about the size, I need to cut them down)!  78 Stepside 4x4...  I wish I had some pictures of after I got it painted.  No digital cameras back then...   :-\

When mullets were still cool.  This was my 16th birthday -- 18 years ago...
