Looking for Information on this Truck
« on: May 27, 2015, 08:08:49 am »
Hello All! I am looking for any information on this truck. I found this picture of my dad's old truck and would love to someday build one just like it (or if a miracle happens, find the exact truck). I have more pictures somewhere that I have to find. He named the truck "Attitude Adjustment" and that is about all I know about it. I am looking for:

Estimated Year:
Size of Lift:
Size of Tires:
Any other details:

Thanks in advance!

Chad

81-87 6 inch lift on 35's  Need to see the front end and/or dash to narrow it down further.

Looking at the transfer case cross member I'm going to guess 85~87.

6" lift, 35" tires, Progessive wheels. Custom Deluxe, K10. Light blue metallic. NP208 transfer case.

Really, really hard to nail down a year on the 81~87 trucks looking at the side or rear. Front would be awesome. Can get within two years with a grille pic.

Tailgate net, saw blade wheels, roll bar, that truck looks like 90% of the square bodys around here circa early 1990s. A truck exactly like that was my dream truck back in the day. (See my build thread) Thank goodness your dad didn't put a sun visor on it.

If you look at my build thread I had a set just like these on my '77 K30 that were Progressive brand. Looked the same as American Racing but cheaper.
