Juiced My Friends 83' chev

mentyl · 28-January-07, 03:32 PM

Well another car project done while I neglect my dark side of the mod case. Me and my best friend juiced his 83' Chev. In the process we notched the rear frame and put a mustang 2 front end on it. The end result is the truck sitting on the frame when lowered leaving the rockers 1" off the ground. It keeps them from getting crunched as easy. When we did his 68' chevy truck on air ride we rebuilt the whole frame and it does sit on the rocker panels. I put a picture of this in here also, we built that a while ago and are in the process of repainting it.

Lookin nice

Both trucks got 350s under the hood, I'm guessin?

the 83' has a built 350 small block and the 68' has a built to the nuts 454 big block. I'll get some engine pics of the 68' later today when I go over there, it has lots of billet and freshly painted tangelo pearl.

Only problem i see thou is you seem to have lowered when you should lift trucks.

Trucks look sick!

I had a little "mini" truck before I jumped into the supra...Lowered etc.

I love the look of those trucks!
