So over the weekend it was so nice outside I decided to snap a few new pics of the '77 (and also took a vid). I'd never taken a vid of how it sounds so thought I'd take one this weekend. I'm still working on becoming better at snapping pics so some aren't as good as others but I'm getting better slowly :)

Enjoy!

Here's the vid. The exhaust is true duals (no cats) from Dynamax headers into Flowmaster 40 Series mufflers....

Looks good Jacob. I see why you kept the stock rims/tires, but have you thought of or will you ever, change the rim/tire combo? Don't get me wrong... it looks GREAT.. but with some clean wheels and tires, it would look ridiculously good.

Thanks, man.

Those are aftermarket (Cragar chrome Soft 8's) but are there to "just get me by" for now. I will eventually but a different rim/tire combo on there and drop down the rear to make it all sit level. I haven't decided what wheel I'll move to yet but it's getting harder and hard to find a 5 on 5 bolt pattern so we'll see :) The '77 is one of those projects that is never truly "done". It'll forever be evolving. :) I would say that rims for the Burb will come ahead new rims for the truck :)

Thanks man :waytogo: I love it! Next mods on it will be compass/temp mirror, a touneau cover and 3rd brake light of some sort. Eventually I plan on a mild drop and different rim/tire combo.

Love the truck Jacob, especially the color, is it a stock color? In the sun it looks like a light blue on top and a darker blue on bottom

Yeah, it's a stock GM color from the early 90's I believe from 91-93. The name is "Medium Dark Metallic Blue". I have the code written down somewhere. It's my favorite color :)

Here ya go man. A couple pics of the first day I got it :) It was bought in Indiana (next door neighbor of my brother) and we drove it home to KC. Surprisingly it actually made with no major issues :)

When you get a chance, though, check out my build thread. It's been a really fun project and I've learned a ton! :)

No doubt! :) It's in the future plans :D Those Cragar Chrome Soft 8's were just cheapies to hold me over for a while. I wasn't a fan of the 15x7 rally rims that originally came on it. If they'd been wider I would have just kept those but 15x7's just don't look right IMO :)
