When I got the truck it was a low rider that was pretty well thrashed. It did come with a 4 inch fiberglass cowl induction hood, a b&m shifter, gt steering wheel, edlebrock carb and intake, and a bed full of random small block parts. Due to condition of truck, I bought another truck for parts. I bought a clean 87 chevy that was a runner and driver for a good deal. I ripped the shortwide down to the frame and started to piece the truck back together. The cab and front clip is from the 87, the bed and frame are from the shortwide. The bed has shaved tail lights, and custom corvette style lights in roll pan. Along with a shaved tailgate with a louvered chevy logo. I also converted over the 3/4 ton drivetrain into the shortwide. The plan was to build a street and strip truck that I could truck pull with. I put the bbc 468 into it and it was a mean little truck. I drove it for a short time, while working the flaws out of it. But meow I'm in the process of getting it running with a small block, and will be selling it soon. I have a second kid on the way, and need more of a family vehicle. I will post more info and specs when I'm ready to sell. Check out some photos from the build...

Lol. I tried also and it said sorry this person removed or deleted this image. I don't understand why. I uploaded the pictures to my photobucket, then pasted the "direct link" on my posts. When I tried the one with the code, it gave me the "removed or deleted" box, even though my pictures are still on my photobucket page.
