Crews and worthy rigs Around the country

Great color combo. A friend in Pensacola had a truck that color, it was huge and looked fantastic! (except for the “I don’t care” fender cut)

Pic from @tarussell driveway back in the day.

Lots of testosterone sitt’n there in the driveway that day!
The most forward truck had a healthy 454 w/ 781’s sweet wiggle stick, 465/205 w/ a MsCloed dual-disc clutch setup and D60/D70 6.17’s & D/L’s.

The truck behind that one was NVRENUF’s old ride that made him a local legend - real healthy 454, 049’s, JW TH400/205, D60/14B w/ T/L & D/L 5.13’s.

There was another on the other side of John’s truck that had a healthy 454 w/ 781’s , 465/205, D60/14B w/ D/L 4.56’s.

My 83 K-3500 crew cab dually w/ 454 781’s , 465/205, D60/D70HD, D/L 4.56’s was parked behind us taking a picture along with another K-10 with a 454, TH350/208, D60/14B D/L 4.56’s.

There seemed to be a pattern of engine combo parts selection going on with all these trucks.. gotta love a good ole BBC with oval-port heads and a proper cam and pistons for squeeze cause it just worked great w/o break’n the bank ( well, maybe a little…).

I said all that just to say that yes, that color combo looks great.
 
Best color combo imo (i’m bias), looks to be very clean. lets see where it lands. Needs to ditch the running boards for sure.

Edit: pic 119 looks like sloppy welds for fixing rust or rust under recently sprayed underbody.

gas door area sloppy / rocker area door open half falling off what ever crap / tail gate area sloppy over spray / radiator looks like crap at cap / rear drive shaft looks chunky and half a$$ painted / yep floor pans look like patch work / 1 new front brake hose & 1 old ugly hose / steering box looks leaky / NO cotter pin on tie rod ends / t-case drop with factory tubes = broken frames .

thats my pics of CRAP from this bring a trailer link ... they sure have dropped there quality standards .

At first glance its an eye catcher, but the more you look the more you find. Still curious to see where this finishes, with all its flaws. Will show if buyers on BaT care about the details or not
 
Nope . Exactly what i typed . Its been proven the factory tubes for the bolts to strech and hold used in this way blows out the frame with such a fine pressure point .
Ahh, I see. Thanks for un-dummying me!
