My 86 chevy
« on: January 04, 2012, 03:14:12 pm »
hellow eveyone, i am new to the forum and i would like to show you my truck. This is my first vehicle i bought it like this, i did not build it. the guy i bought it from rebuilt it from the round up and made it as a show truck for himself but he had to sell. right not its parked for the winter but come summer it will be my daily driver. i dont think i will change much on it, 1 thing i realy want is to get rid of the step bumper and put a chrome one on.

Also what's the truck beside yours in the last picture?

Welcome from NW Indiana.  That is one sweet truck, tastefully done with the 95 wheels and side moldings.

     Welcome from California.  Very nice ride.  It does look brand new.

thanks guys, its got a crate GM 350. The truck in the background is a 78 chevy, its our yard truck (it does the dirty jobs) needless to say its not the best of shape. but its still one of my faves, learnt how to drive in it and salso drove it to school that day after i got my drivers.

      You used to pick those up at any auto parts store, but I have not seen them in years.
