Yah, I just got the truck back on the road almost a year ago (just in time to plow snow again). I replaced a lot of sheet metal and some new paint. The truck does push snow well with the Detroit locker in back and a power lock up front. :D
 
Did a lil wheelin with the tri Moto and the k20 couple weeks back. Just realized they are both 1983's :pimp:

That's funny right there now, I don't care who you are... (I know this is 5 mons late,; just trying to get my five post so that I can start the posting pics). But that is funny, that rig has nothing but POTENTIAL.

New tires and rims JIT

I got my new Goodyear Duratracs and rims installed on my new 1989 GMC 6.2 ATS Turbo diesel just in time for the cold and snow here in Colorado.

I just bought the truck a week ago and decided to get some 315/75/16 Duratracs. I have had these tires before on my old Cherokee and they are awesome in all conditions. My old truck had Mickey Thompson MTZ 35" and I really liked them as well but I like these more for the ice and snow I see here in Colorado.

good looking rig :waytogo:
 
Here's my 79
D60/ '03 14BFF, 4" lift with 37s
Still have many more things I'd like to do even though I've done a ton of work to it over the years. Never ending as you all know.

Progressively changing. Got it as a camper.


How it currently sits
 
Love the blue bowtie in your grille. A blacked out grille with a blue bowtie, especially the 73-78 style, is probably my absolute favorite (except the 69-72 Jimmy with the dual headlights).

Here is my '73. Recently purchased from Georgia, haven't even picked it up yet! I'll post the CL pics for now.

Thanks! Congrats on your new purchase, you picking it up soon?
Paint that bowtie blue and it'll look just like mine
 
As soon as I can pick out a weekend to get down there and back. Holidays are really jacking things up :doah:but hopefully within the next 2-3 weeks at the most.

Yeah one of the first plans is to black out the grille and blue-out the bowtie.
