What Makes Your Truck Unique?
This is not an original idea, I saw a similar thread over on the h.a.m.b., but I
and hopefully others, would like to know what makes your truck different than anyone else's? What makes it unique or custom? What are your personal touches that make the truck yours? Feel free to post pictures.

Re: What Makes Your Truck Unique?
I was wondering why I never see these mirrors on other 10's. I have them on mine too and everytime I see any other similar trucks I think, why do they have those mirrors and I have these??
As for mine.. I think the interior seat setup. I haven't really seen any like it yet since I've been here on the forum and looking at everyone else's trucks. Also, the stock replacement suspension stuff I always see for a 77 Chevy K10 note that it has single shocks in front and back.. mine has dual shock setups up front: As a note, if anyone can correct me that they are NOT unique, that would be helpful. I'm still trying to learn everything that I have here. |

Dump hoist conversion on my 83 C20 - gets a lot of looks when I unload at the local "landfill" (a.k.a. "dump".)

On my 46 I used a late 70s floorshift column They have a linkage hookup but no shifter I hooked up the linkage and now have a truck with no shifter To shift you just turn the collar Any one who gets in it cannot figure how to put in gear Great theft deterrent

Re: What Makes Your Truck Unique?
I have the 2.56 gears too!
Are they good for anything except going really fast? By fast I mean basically beyond a stock trucks capabilities. lol
