Here is a couple trucks I played a pretty big role in the build up of.

The K30 is my buddy Dale's. It's a 77 model with Dana 44 front and a 14 bolt rear, about 17" of suspension lift and 44" TSL Swampers. Under the hood is a beast of a small block. I couldn't tell you guys the first bit about the motor build; that was done after I moved to Texas. In this pic, he had 39.5" truxxus STS. Sorry in advance for the crappy quality; I had to steal these off my facebook.

The C10 was Dale's brother Mike's truck. It was body dropped 5 1/2" to the doors and set up for 22s. He sold it a few years back to get a reliable family-type vehicle.

Mine has a little rust around the tops of the door jambs, and some in the doors, but it's not terrible. I picked it up for a whopping $1200...
