Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
That looks great. I haven't seen any wiper arm covers. BTW, looks like you could use a new windshield.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
Massey Ferguson black. I like the durability of the industrial paint. This truck will be used for hauling as well as to cruise in. Not looking to make a rat rod truck, more of a tactical-swat look

"The Book Of Eli" movie trucks played a big roll in the way the truck will look.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
Here are a couple pictures of my baby. He is a 1976 Silverado trailering Special.
2wd 1/2 ton long bed. 454 with a automatic. This truck was special ordered by my grandmother in 76 and has never left the family. I partially restored him a few years back. Now that I have him in my full possesion full time I am going to finish him right. I have all of the origional trim on order and that will make him stock other than the rear bumper. The all white paint was a special order for the year also. Everything works perfectly from the dual battery system to the A/C.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
transamman78 that is a very nice truck you have there! When you do decide on restoring "him"
 just make sure you take pictures of everything and make a build thread on here. Im sure everyone would love to see it including me! Oh and welcome from Texas!

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
Thanks. Actually the only thing I need do do is put the origional trim on and clean up the suspension. We did a frame off about 4 yeaer ago but for some reason they put the different trim on. I will posat pics of the interior and engine bay next. I am thinking about putting the centercaps of of a late 60's camaro on him just to make a little change on the wheels. I think they should fit my origional wheels.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
I noticed the front fender trim had squared corners instead of rounded, and I don't remember ever seeing that before, other than that and no black or gold stripe on the trim it looks original enough to me.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
Nice truck. Had me in a 30 second stare trying to think what was plain as day 'different' until my mind engaged on the mirrors being tucked inward instead of outward! Nice touch!
Definitely a 'keeper' to enjoy!.  Mark
