Pictures of my "work in progress" or just work lol

[MylilBowTie]

Some of the exhaust pictures. I got the pypes exhaust system with x-pipe. Be it divine intervention or whatever I couldn't make the exhaust system tuck for anything it was literally a few inches from the ground in the rear. Mike knew a guy that does exhaust work. So we had to take the x pipe out, it was really to close to the driveshaft without a load let alone what it would be with one. I wish I had some pictures of what it looked like before it got all fixed. So its fixed and tucked a lot better than what I could do in 12hrs of messing with it. I dont see why a system that is "made for our trucks" is so hard to make fit right without owning an exhaust shop. I still have the pypes mufflers (sound okay but a little on the quite side but I have cats) and the 3in tail pipes.


This is with the HD moog coil springs installed.

These are my very worn out leafsprings sagging the rear so bad. Should at least be as high as the front.

Tweaked bumper from previous accident it was in before I bought it.

This is the other side with the moog coils installed. Plus damage from the previous accident.


Front ground clearance shot, didn't turn out to well.

Here is an exhaust avi file to listen to the exhaust. http://www.73-87.com/misc/Picture3%20028.avi Just idling about 650-700 rpm.

I have the passenger door, passenger fender, bumper, and grill. Just need to get a few more items like inner fender wells then I will have a good doghouse. As you can tell body work is the last thing on the list. But its getting closer to the top than it was.

I also want to thank Jeff for hosting these files.

You got a lot of work ahead of you Steven, but the big picture will be worth it. Good luck.

Glad you got the stuff posted OK.
