Welcome to the board, man. Sweet truck. Got any more pics? Engine, interior, we love 'em all.

ChevLoRay · 09-16-2009, 10:49 PM

Here is mine after I repainted the mirrors which is after the front end was repaired...new smooth bumper. I put the billet grille in a couple years ago. Now, I need some clear corners for the grille and some billet step pads. After I get the tailgate handle flip kit put in and have the tailgate repainted, I'll be done until I get some different wheels.

Welcome gr8ride. That's a sharp looking truck.

Chevloray - the clear corners will really finish off the front end of the truck. Your hard work is defintely paying off.

5.7L JWL · 09-18-2009, 10:56 AM

gr8ride, I'm REALLY diggin' your color truck/wheel combo! Thing looks great! Got any more pics of the motor or interior?

Jay

What drop is that? 5/7? 6/8? Static or Bagged? Wheel size?

Jay

gr8ride · 09-20-2009, 04:31 PM

static up front with a combo of 2 inch spindle, 4 inch drop arm, 2 inch spring. the rear is bagged. 20 inch rims. i will make the rear the same when i change to a 12 bolt, but for now its bagged. i had it on air all the way around ( one of the first in the 90's). the ride was o.k. but it did not make it a very good hotrod. the
problem now is that the spring pocket is the lowest point. Ohio roads suck. my truck has been around awhile. some might remember it tuck'n 22 inch wheels.

JohnC · 09-25-2009, 03:21 PM

That's a beautiful engine color.

dcnoel08 · 09-27-2009, 01:28 PM

New member, alot of nice trucks. Here's mine I bought a couple months ago. Was a stepside, now fleetside & Cowl hood. Planning on a 3/4 static drop, with the 15" SS Wheels. Smothie bumpers, sport mirrors and going all Black.

JohnC · 09-28-2009, 08:48 AM

Nice truck. It will look sharp with the SS wheels, and all black. Keep us updated.

89muscletruck · 10-09-2009, 12:02 PM

Well this is the 94 that I bought about three months back. My 89 decided to die on my and it turned out to be FAR cheaper to buy this truck and it would have been to fix up that old rust bucket.
So far I have added the euro tailights, clear signal lenses, clear corners, a grant steering wheel, and a stereo.
Future plans include a set of torq-thrusts, or cragar 5 spokes, a lowering kit probably 2/4 inches, seat covers, and oneday once I am not using it as my daily driver, a 427 ci engine.
This plan will probably take years to acomplish but one day.
However on monday mourning, a deer ran out of the dark across the road on a suicide run while I was driving to work, the d@mn thing managed to shatter my grill, turn signals, corner lenses, break the headlight mounts, bend in the corner of the hood an 1/8th of an inch, and mess up the bumper sightly.

One step forward and two back I guess.

The stupid thing couldn't even manage to crush the quarter panel, so the rust could be fixed.

JohnC · 10-09-2009, 03:26 PM

Looks like a nice truck.

Deers never seem to do damage to the parts that actually need it.

69-350 · 10-09-2009, 11:45 PM

At least it looks like a pretty easy fix. sucks you'd have to buy a new grille and lights though.

already get some snow up there? It was in the 20s and snowed a little bit here. More tonight than all day, although it's been trying to flurry here all day. Finally sticking this evening. Good thing I washed my truck yesterday. People gave me funny looks driving by when I was crawled underneath my truck washing more mud off my underside, at 40 degrees out. Shoot, that is still warm. Almost t-shirt weather here. Yay, the joys of living in town now, neighbors and people driving around giving me funny looks.

Spray-Bomb · 10-22-2009, 01:59 AM

Hmm, dont remember ever posting a pic of my round bodys in here

90... 5-speed, 350, was DD till I broke the rear end

bigoletruck · 10-22-2009, 09:30 PM

geeze.. is that 89 bagged in the front or static? looks like a beater.. foreal. lol. whats that like a 8 in drop in the front. sick. lol

Spray-Bomb · 10-26-2009, 01:53 AM

It was bagged by one of the POs & they did the worst job I have ever seen

It is just nasty, they hacked everything they did to the truck
I dont really think the truck is unsafe, but its not done right

They cared so much about it that they dragged the frame till the lower piece of the frame flaps in the wind
