LOVE IT!
the old skool chevy's are some of my favorite trucks from back in the day! they are getting harder and harder to come by since most of them get cut up by hacks that want to make them long travel trucks and it just never seems to work. my brother has a blazer that he is going to restore that is the same era and i think it needs the jet boat paint job!

It reminds me of the unfinished Walker Evans prerunner that was on Craigslist for $1000... and sold for $500!
Cool truck. Old iron rules.

Wow - nice find! I have a lot of great memories of those trucks from back in the '80s. Let me guess - it was in a garage in the Parker area somewhere?

Could we get a bunch more pictures?
I have a customer/friend that is talking about building a replica of a 70's/80's C8 Truck rather then a street rod.
Looking to steal the look and certainly a bunch of the performance.
Thanks!!!
