My 82 swb

[lechez71]

i bought this truck about 2 years ago from a friend. i dont have pics of when i bought it but it was primer gray with red wheels. the interior was crap so got all new interior. the motor it had was a 350 and a TH400. i got rid of it the engine and tranny and bought an 07 LS motor and 60e tranny. i did all the work myself it was my first time painting a vehicle, and swaping an LS motor, i am pleased with how it came out. the truck is running now, and runs strong. i plan on getting 4.11 and a trutrac very soon. also should be getting LT header, stall converter, and a cam. my plans for the truck is to have a mid 11s street truck to whoop on mustangs, and hemis. if my plan is not achieved N/A im gonna spray my way there.

The color of your truck looks alot like my '07 Silverado -- factory Desert Brown Metallic.  I like it!

[lechez71]

Thanks guys. got2haul you are spot on, the color is from an 07 silverado. when the sun hits it it looks lighter and the matallic shows.

There's a lot of work there, and it was worth it.  I love all the clean brand new looking little details.

Great job!  Love the color.  Keep the rally wheels - rallys ya!  bling no

thanks, to this day im still working out little details that make it look better. also i sold the 20" wheels the rallys are staying for now. the front wheels did not have threads for the center caps so i drilled and tapped them. i have an extra 2 15x8 rallys but i decided to go with 8" in the rear and 7" inch for the front.
