Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
WOW! That truck is clean. I especially like the beauty rings with the caps. If it's a survivor and is original, I'd leave it that way. Just my .02.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
Thanks guys...I just put the new skins on her - they were the widest I could get on the stock wheels...I should clairify what I meant by project...I just want to upgrade the handling/steering, fresh paint and maybe a slight lowering kit...thoughts and suggestions welcome and appreciated...
Mark also here is an interior shot...no cracks in the dash at all... |

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
Truck looks really clean. I think just about anything you do to it will look good. Just really depends on what you really like about the truck. To me long beds never looked all that good lowered too much. Keep us updated.

John,
I agree about not lowering it too much...I was thinking about 3 inches - although I saw a long bed the other day that had 5 inch all around and it looked pretty good! Thanks, Mark |

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
Nothing wrong with it, I just personally don't like it. I guess the lowering of them just magnifies the length of the bed.
