1. House of Kolor Cobalt Kandy Blue w/ Jet Set Black, and Orion Silver flames coming off of the front wheel. (Smaller, more realistic flames) 2. House of Kolor Tangerine Orange w/ Orion Silver Stripes. I'm leaning toward the blue, although I love Orange trucks. And both would be sprayed over an Orion Silver base.

All of those look good! Don't think you could go wrong with any of them.

Re: 83 Short Step. First vehicle=First Project
I think if I do Orange I might just do one solid color. Still a while away so I have time to think!

Re: 83 Short Step. First vehicle=First Project
Hello everybody i'm new to this site sorry for no intro earlyer but i've been checkin out the site, and let metell you this site is awsome. I haven't been to many sites but i like this one. Very informative and evrybody seems to be very helpful that is just KOOL. I owen a '86 1 ton dually that i have been restoring for about 4 months now. Any way about the raised wood bed Custom Classic Trucks did an article on doing a raised wood bed in there May 2009 mag. Its on a 72 fleetside but i think it's the same basic idea.

Re: 83 Short Step. First vehicle=First Project
Hey thanks man, and welcome to the board. I'll have to try and find that and read about it. It sounds like a really cool idea.

Re: 83 Short Step. First vehicle=First Project
Thanks!
Well yesterday I went to my uncles shop to get my engine block and all my stuff to build it.. all this stuff has been sitting over there for a year or more and was origionally going to go into my dad's corvette, but since he decided he wants to sell it and get a truck the 350 and 700R4 are now going into my truck! Here's some pics Also here are some bucket seat's I got from a friend of my dads for a great price.. FREE! Basically we have almost enough components to build two engines.. just need another block and some little things. I also borrowed my uncles DA sander and paint can, just need some primer and stuff and I can get started on the body work. Hopefully we can get the ball rollin' soon!

I like this kid already! Your truck looks sweet! I was just in Wichita this Sunday/Monday. I picked up the red 85 in my avatar from another board member, traded my 68 for it. We meet near South Haven to swap. One thing about use around here, we like lots of pictures! So keep em coming! Looks like you have a great assortment of engine components to screw together.

Re: 83 Short Step. First vehicle=First Project
No prob man. What condition is he looking for? Driver, already done, project? Also what kind of price range? There are a couple in the Dallas area I think. One is pretty pricey, and the other is a project.
