*BGRAFX* · 01-23-2010, 04:01 PM

You got it!

Dino is actually in the process of stretching a short bed frame to fit a crewcab.

Scootin 81 C20 · 01-23-2010, 04:48 PM

I don't even care if they're 16.5's. That's how bad I want them. Have to figure out a good price though.

*BGRAFX* · 01-23-2010, 04:53 PM

Ya we will figure something out. (I've got to get the truck first)

Scootin 81 C20 · 01-23-2010, 04:58 PM

I know.

This one popped up for sale locally, IT IS NOT MINE:
"1987 Chevrolet 4x4 truck, 4 door, long bed, 454 motor, new a/c, k&n air filter, custom exaust, no rust, tow package, c.d. player, 4 inch lift, 33 inch tires. $4500 obo call 425-299-4492"

Things like this make me wish I had waited a little bit to buy mine but it is probably best I did...

Hey guys, been reading and looking on here for awhile, so I thought I'd post up some pics of my crew cab dually. I also will be starting a thread in the 67-72 section for a truck that I'm building from the ground up in my shop.

Pics of the CC dually: (Next month its going down on full air ride with 4-link)

joe231 · 01-24-2010, 12:45 AM

Nice!
Those wheels look wicked!
Are they painted? candy paint?
Almost looks like they are anodized

ratty 46 · 01-24-2010, 12:55 AM

Keep us posted.

I really like that black dually wellbilt. cant wait to see it bagged!!!

WellBilt Kustoms · 01-24-2010, 01:05 AM

Thanks for all the replies guys! I gotta say I've been a member on ALOT of forums, and by far this forum seems to be the best as far as information goes, quality of vehicles, and over-all good attitude of its members. Glad I'm part of it! I'll be posting alot going forward with the build of my dually, the c10 build thats in my shop, and my good friends 86 Suburban's build which my shop will be doing full air ride, shave, and channel drop.

Now, with that being said. My wheels are 19.5's. There powder coated candy red. Since I took those pics, I have pulled off the black caps, and went with no caps, and long chrome lug nuts. (I've always liked the look of long lugs rotating down the road) I'm looking into doing the spike lug covers after its bagged. I have probably 50% of the interior done in it now. Just picked up some seats out of a 2004 Silverado this morning which I'll be swapping in, and building a custom council to go in between the front buckets.

Ordering up all my air ride parts next week. Slam specialties bags on all four, step notch out back with a parallel 4-link, and custom tubed A-arms which I'll be fabbing up. I'm really looking forward to it laying out.

Still tossing around the idea of just going ahead and channeling it when I do the air ride since It will be pretty much taken apart.

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys. I'll start a build thread on it once I get my regular computer back that has all my pics.

This is my first post, been lurking on here and finally registered.

Here's my '79 crew cab. I picked it up in November.
From the factory it was a C20 SRW with a 350 and automatic. It was converted to a 6.2 diesel 4 speed dually.
I bought it with a rod hanging out of the pan. Drove 2 hours each way late one night to pick it up (was definitely worth the trip)
I have an extra 6.2 I was going to put in, but I found another truck needing an engine that I *might* be able to get, which would make a better DD.
Maybe this will get a big block then

The red camper spcl. looks decent for the part of the country its from (snow/salt belt). What kind of suspension mods are you planning ..... if any?

Ratty 46

1973GMC_1500 · 01-24-2010, 01:46 AM

I'm definitely not going to lower it. You can tell the front is sitting pretty low in that pic. When I took the engine out it went up a good 3 inches. I suppose because the 6.2 is heavier than the 350 that it originally had.
I want it to sit that high with an engine in it.
I have 3 of the wheels for the rear, but am missing one. It even came with 2 chrome simulators for the front. I need to get some for the back.

awesome truck you pickedup there got any interior shots looks like it has buckets

1973GMC_1500 · 01-24-2010, 02:12 PM

Ya, and I got for $500

, but as it turns out the cab floor is almost ready to fall out even though the seller assured the cab was solid.
It does have buckets and a center console.
I can possibly get pics today, if enough snow melted so I can get the door open.

The dash and door panels leave a lot to be desired, but I have a complete '77 interior that I'm going to put in it. But that was a regular cab, luckily my rear seat is in excellent shape and the door panels aren't as bad. This has all black trim because it's a scottsdale, that '77 was a silverado
