Started with a 84 lwb with a bent frame and a 74 swb with a rotten cab and bed swap to a stepside and got this.
74 frame and suspension
84 cab, front clip, rear end, engine and tranny
87 step side bed

Jonboy · 11-13-2011, 11:31 PM

Mine looks almost the same. The first pic is before I buffed it out, the second is how it sits now. I have changed the engine, trans, interior, and A/C out, though.

Jonboy · 11-13-2011, 11:34 PM

My truck actually went through these three steps (since I am only allowed one at a time. The '79 had an LT1 in it, that got sold and I bought the dually (that was going to get the CCSB treatment), that got traded to Scoti for the '74. Whew!
