Chevy's in the wild

[tarussell]

This truck had a nice running 454 in it and a McCloed dual-disc clutch set up 465/205 with D60/70-B Detroit’s and 6.17’s on 44” BOGGERS
BTW, if ya‘ can see the front of a truck beside/behind it - that is NVRENUF’s old 80 K-10 We were gett’n ready to go play in the swamp.

 

[tarussell]

This was John’s ( NVRENUF’s ) 80 K-10 back in the 90’s.
At this point it had a strong 454 TH400/205 and a Big-Hub D44 and 14-Bolt D/L in back and 4.56’s on 42” TSL’s. Good times….

This one was mine in the 90’s.
An 83 K-3500 454 ( stock motor in this pick but later that year I put a fairly healthy roller 468 in it to play a little harder ) and 465/205, D60/70HD D/L out back and 4.56’s on 38” TSL’s.
Times were good !

 

[tarussell]

This was a buddy of NVRENUF
SBC 400 TH350/203 ( if I recall correctly) and big-hub D44/14B G/L out back and I think 4.11’s maybe 4.56’s on 40” GUMBOS.
JoGM - correct me if I am wring on the running gear on “The Mouse”.

This was a day at the mud races in Florida.
The smallest motor in the bunch belonged to the Dodge and it was a 440 - all the other trucks had 454’s in them.
More good times.

 

[tarussell]

This guy was frigg’n insane !!
454 that earned its living in that truck !
465/205 , 3/4-Ton running gear 10-Bolt/14-Bolt shimmed up posi up front and G/L out back with 3.73’s on 39.5” TSL’s.
Really good times !

 

[tarussell]

This was NVRENUF racing at a track in Pensacola
We put a NASTY roller BBC in it with John’s JW TH400/205
D60/14B T/L - D/L 5.13’s on 38” skinny BOGGERS up front and 39.5” out back.
TIMES WERR GOOD !!

edit - it had 44” TSL’s on it for this race ( the deep pit ).

Retired fire truck. Guy that bought it and restored it, his father was in the fire company and worked on ordering it and outfitting it for the company When new.

My truck I fixed up 35 years ago, my blazer I owned back around 2006 (before) and I found that blazer just last year (after pictures) makes me sad. Tried buying it before I bought the 73 I have now.

Hoe Lee Crap! @tarussell pulled a bunch of stuff out of the Way Back Vault!! Look at that skinny knucklehead in post #362, my how things have changed. I should have grabbed the wheels off of that truck with the Boggers. Hell, we should have grabbed that whole truck.. what a waste when it got parted out.

@tarussell if that red truck is for sale close to you, you need to sell a kidney and own it!

@tarussell
Great share... those pics are great

 

[tarussell]

That red K-10 is FINE and looks to be a street queen with no wear-n-tear what so ever !
It's gone now and I think it went for $25,000 ( at least that's what it listed for ) - I hope whoever got it knows what they got, too rich for my blood.

Thanks - Those were only some of the trucks we wheeled with in the 90's - times were real good !
I was all about a good running 350 until I drove John's ( NVRENUF ) truck with a stout 454 with 44's and only 4.56's in high range in the mud - - - and it was all over with at that point. With in a years time most of us had a BBC in our trucks - the power was/is intoxicating once we started to hop up the 454's - things were never the same from then on....
