It is not mine, but you can find more info on Mautofied.com if it's still there. I tried looking already but my computer doesn't always agree with Mautofied's website. I guess it's a love/hate thing.

Viny · 07-30-2010, 12:22 PM

Thanks. Had it since '87 when I bought it as a used fleet truck. It was my second vehicle for many years and then it sat for quite a while. I had the engine rebuilt about 5 years ago and put new seats in it and had it repainted this year.

I agree it does look good.

Now, if I can only get that Edelbrock carb straightened out...

bigwheel15 · 08-03-2010, 10:39 PM

Heres my 1981 longbed:

Has a 3 inch drop in the front via springs and a 5 inch drop in the back using a flip kit. Gonna get it in primer for the time being while I do some interior work, do some more body work (rust mainly) then drop it 2 more inches all around. Not bad for paying $800 I think.

Chlsnk · 08-03-2010, 11:02 PM

big wheel I dig your truck. Start a build thread!

bigwheel15 · 08-03-2010, 11:12 PM

Thanks and will do chlsnk! Gonna order the primer and stop in at harbor freight for a cheap gun to shoot it. Ill probably start the work in a week or two and ill begin a log shortly after the work starts.
