    Is the "body shop" tryna rob me

    The 7k is labor for fixing the cab and painting it along with the short bed i will be supplying. No cutting the long bed, I'm gonna be buying a short box. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    Is the "body shop" tryna rob me

    Well if the truck was 4x4 I'd lift it and leave it long bed. I even looked at converting it to 4x4 but that requires even harder cutting and welding. Ive looked at how long beds look static dropped and It doesn't appeal to me. So if i can't find a price that will fit to have this work done...

    Is the "body shop" tryna rob me

    I thought about that too. There's some really good write ups on how to do it all. I was gonna dig into the frame myself even but I backed off for fear of messing something up really bad and putting a truck together that wont track straight. I also have never done body work before and dont know...

    Is the "body shop" tryna rob me

    Honestly I had not thought about the possibility of finding a "rust free cab" by itself. I would think good cabs by now would only be ones on restored trucks. My truck is a florida only truck for wich i have the original deslership bill of sale to the woman who bought it in 84. In Hillsborough...

    Is the "body shop" tryna rob me

    Its alright I understand. I havnt signed up to forums in the back, but im familiar with people coming and asking questions that have been answered a million times and a simple google search would answer. And I did look in the paint and body section of the forum prior to posting to see if there...

    Is the "body shop" tryna rob me

    I was actually very specific with the guy. I told him that I would take the truck apart for him, that id leave it in the metal for him, and would even remove the fenders and pull the cab from the frame. I told him I would buy the cab repair kit and I just needed him to cut and weld in the repair...

    Is the "body shop" tryna rob me

    Its a long bed... That I traded for a crashed gsxr, that was not running thrown in a barn, with wires eaten up by rodents. Its not like im cutting up a beautiful looking truck. This thing would've just been a garden ornament... Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    Is the "body shop" tryna rob me

    Is the "body shop" tryna rob me

    WTB 73-87 short bed

    Just like the tittle says I'm looking to buy a short bed for an 84 C10. I'd prefer fleetsides but will also go stepside. The least rust the better. Not interested in buying things too far gone with excessive rust on nedsides. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    8 ft Bed

    Anyone have any use for a rust free long bed lemme know. Willing to take just about anything for it really, I just need an excuse to let it go vs going through the mission of moving it to the back over grass. I was gonna keep it as a trailer but now I'm thinking I just want the garage space. Im...

    84 Chevy P30??? Anyone know anything??

    Yeah both of the websites posted are awesome. The first website is more gearing detailed, and the second website has more variety of tools like fuel injectors. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    Bruh..... That tool is like.... [emoji2962] That's exsactly what I needed! Even though i still wanna learn the math behind it, but that's awesome! Thank you. According to that chart. With a t56 and 4.10 gears. On 6th gear i can cruise at 85 with the engine at 2150 rpm.... Thats not bad! For...

    84 Chevy P30??? Anyone know anything??

    Wow, thank you! Im gonna grab a pen and paper and see if i can figure it out. Question, does differential gearing affect this at all! Like 4.10 vs 3.73. Because it affects speed vs engine rpm. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    I guess all I'd need is someone interested in buying all this stuff! I dont imagine any other use for it other than someone tryna bring one back to life. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    84 Chevy P30??? Anyone know anything??

    Thats something that I'm dying to learn. How to calculate gear ratios and final drive to figure out engine rpm in a given gear. If you know how to do it I'd love to hear it! Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    84 Chevy P30??? Anyone know anything??

    Well i would ideally like to use a T-56 from an f-body. But i have yet to do any kind of research on weather or not the gear ratios will put the 454 in power after every shift. All i know is i dont want the end product to be auto and i want 5 or 6 gears not 4. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    84 Chevy P30??? Anyone know anything??

    Gold you say?? Lol thats what I wanna hear because both the transmission and dually rear end I'd be selling. I have no use for a 3 speed auto trans in what will be a 6 speed truck. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk
