Heres a couple pics of my 85 Chevy,hard to tell but it is lowered a couple inches, but the back is still too high IMO. It has a GM crate 350 with a few mods, rebuilt tranny, new brakes, new exhaust, new carpet, new windshield and new paint. I have a steel cowl induction hood for it that still needs to be painted soon. The drip rails have been removed/smoothed, front and rear rollpans welded and smoothed and tailgate filled/smoothed and handle flipped and the fender emblems have been removed/filled/smoothed.

Still needs alot of work but thought I would post some pics.

If you have any ideas for mods, especially wheels and tires style/size plus height....please reply :D

I got rid of an 83 not too long ago. I have a complete painless wire harness "new never used" and a few odds and ends. I would have to dig in the boxes again. No promises, but I can look to see if I have anything you might need.

That is a gorgeous truck, but needs to be waaaaay lower. Lay it the fuck out on some simple 20s. Then it would be perfect. I am very jealous. Whats the deal with your other truck too?

Very nice. A 5/7" drop and 20's would look sweet. :head: How long have you had this truck? The 73-91' GM trucks are awesome, hoh? :grin:

my vote would be a 4/6 and 17 inch torque thrusts .......yeah i know 17s are SMALL but they have more of a classic look on old trucks than blingers.

nice truck JB, very smooth looking. i like the exhaust exits too :rocking:

Thanks guys :rocking:

I dunno if I want 20's or go with something smaller like Jeff said, cant make up my mind. It does need to be lowered more thats for damn sure :anitoof: I do like the smoothies, just wish they were chrome. I need to do something with the exhaust exits, either trim up some or just dumps. I need to get off my ass and get my cowl induction hood painted thats just sittin in the garage, lol.

ewogy I still have the K5 too if thats what your asking :ninja:

Gorgeous. I would go with some 18's or 20's on that bad boy and bring it down just a little bit more. That is one sweet ass truck though man.
