My 1990 C1500 SWB Build - Daily Driver

[Supercharged111]

I was down in Christine Texas, about an hour from Corpus Christi for a week working on a power plant. I know it was 100* on Thursday.

And that's why I can't do the south. Last summer I grew less and less tolerant of the heat as the season dragged on.

Kinda funny how things change as you get older. I know between the heat and allergens, I felt pretty rough every day.

Wooooooooooo!

This is the exact look i've been going for all of these years.

I guess, it's definitely time to do bodywork, now.

Or wrap it?

I kind of dig the five different colors with the new wheels, no idea why. It's like a non clownish version of a VW harlequin car.

@df2x4 I was thinking the same thing.

This looks great, it looks like a really solid performer. I am very jealous.

The new wheels definitely look sweet. Whenever I see this truck it reminds me of a song Dolly Parton did, Coat of many colors.

I don't recall that song talking about doling out beat downs though.

Ive been following this thread for a while now and its become a huge inspiration for my 89 build. I'll just be doing a cammed 5.3/t56 magnum set up, with boost planned later on down the road. That dirty dingo crossmember looks sweet. I know holley just released a adapter bracket that works with the stock crossmember, its advertised to be used with the hooker motor mounts but im just running the ICT swap plates. Tho i doubt that would make such a difference.

Thanks for following along! I appreciate it.

I'll be honest, the only reason I did the dirty dingo crossmember was because I just wanted to try a fancy crossmember out.

I can't see any reason why a stock crossmember, couldn't work.
