I am going to try to post some pics and if that works I will give you some specs. I have had this truck since I was 16 and it has gone thru some changes. Some day maybe it will be complete.

As for the specs, It is a 82' that my grandfather gave me when I was sixteen in 88'. You do math.
I cut the top and back of cab and it will be a four seater with full cage and
tubed rear frame.
Four link rear suspension and three link front with coilovers.
Tapered front 20 inches and rear with just skins.
Custom dash and gauges.
Going to swap out the sm465 for a th400 and thinking on the 205 with a magnum box.
One tons.
Full hydralic steering.
New radiator with electric fan.
Fuel cell.
42 Iroks or 43 sx's not sure yet.

More pics to come.

Whats your plans for capping the A pillar? Debating if I should find a full vert to swap the a or just cap with sheetmetal. Also I like your suspension plan, as thats what I am going to do as well

 

[dangerdog]

I am just going to cap with sheet metal. And have a bikini top made for those rainy days. I was planning to put 52's but I figured I am this far I might as well 3 link it. I would like to thank Sincity for doing his build. As I got many ideas from it.

Thank You. I am in the process of trying to lay out the rear suspension.

I need to ask are you keeping it blue? I love that color, hope to paint mine similar.

 

[dangerdog]

Yes I am. When I did the frame off back in 91' 92' I changed the color from brown to blue and did the bottom and inside of the cab. It is a ford color. Chevy did'nt offer a good blue back then.
