Re: John's Project

I'm just saying. If he digs the shorties, then there's one there. If he wants to fill out a complete parking spot, then look for a good longbed .

Re: John's Project




Well I don't know about any schlong clubs but I do prefer a whole truck!

I used to think a short bed looked goofy until I saw the king cab trucks in the '90's and later. Now it's just the regular cab trucks that look strange to me. However, steppers are a different story. Those look really cool but even though I prefer the 67-72 trucks, I like their stepsides the least.

There is a freakin science to this hocus pocus.

Re: John's Project

Here are some pics of the 94 I use to drive, and have mentioned before. I drove it to the meet we had this weekend, and got some pics of it. So I thought I would share. This truck is one of the company vehicles of my family's hardware store. I drove this before I got my 03 1500HD. I haven't driven the truck in about 3 years. My cousins daughters have been driving, or should I say tearing it up, for the last couple of years. Needless to say here it is in it's present state. Now that his daughters are done driving it, my cousin and I are talking about cleaning it back up, and repainting it. He has always wanted a 502 in it. Who knows.....

It is a 1994 GMC Sierra GT. When we repainted it several years back we didn't get the decals put back on. It has been lowered 2/4 with a set of DJM spindles up front, and we had the rear springs de-arched, and cut the over load spring. It has a set of Eagle 212 20" wheels. It has a Goodmark steel cowl hood. Steel rear roll pan, and billet grill. Also has the clear headlight, and signal lights. It used to have the 454SS mirrors on it, but now has a set of Cal-Vu mirrors on it. Other than those few things it's pretty much stock with almost 200,000 miles on it.
