well check her out!
« on: December 29, 2008, 04:22:56 pm »
this is my silver! been working on this truck since i was 10 years old. my grand father bought her new lowered it and put the rims on drove it everyday for 8-10 years, sold her to my dad who drove it everyday to work for 10+ years and i bought her from my dad fixed her up a bit and parked it for the last 3 years. 350/350 all power every option until i took of the a/c stuff (to make her lighter LOL) keep in mind i was only about 12-13 years old) this truck has a TON of history so i'll keep it kinda short... future plans will be in the project threads. 700r4, all new interior w/ floor shifter and bucket seats, body & paint. without further a doo here is the only pic i have on photobucket...

holy crap that is gorgeous, remove the 79 headlight bezels and put some chrome wagon wheels on it and it would look exaclty the same as my very first 73-87 chevy truck, a 77 chevy silverado shortbed. Very nice!

thanks alot! let the modding/remodding begin... going to start a game plan on paper tonight and maybe take out the interior. i'm kinda reluctant because the interior is ok but the passenger side floor panel is rusted through.
