truckerbynight,
Thanks for the compliments, the picture was taken on Main st. Placerville a.k.a. (Hangtown) Ca. on May 17 2009 at the "Old Hangtown Classic Car Show". Notice the yellow Pantera in the back ground he has a 615 h.p. big block and claims it will do 195 mph. He won an award (most likely to be chased by the Ca. Highway Patrol and get away). I guess he thought it would look better parked next to that awesome white dually

I am so impressed by the work you have done to this truck. I have been to a lot of car shows and I have never seen one like this. Did you do all the work yourself? Where is the photo taken of the girl standing in front of your truck? It looks familiar. Maybe in Arizona? She's cute!!

GMC MAN72,
Sorry about just getting back to you. Thanks for the compliments I appreciate it. As for the cold air, the parts are mostly from Spectre. All of the parts were purchased individually. Two of the couplers were custom made form stainless steel.

I loved how you did your cold air intake. Email me. I would like to know how to do something that on my 72 4x4. I just got done building a brand new 383. So I need some Ideas. Oh my email is foxsportsracing72@yahoo.com Were did you mount your msd box? I have mine on the left fender rightnow.

Nice truck,very clean. I really like the way the bed fits with the cab. Most restored flatbeds retain some sort of stake pockets and sideboards. This look is much more clean looking. Very unique older flatbed with a hot rod look.

Yea- "SKYSTEVE" thats what it says (400 hp) what is so suprising about that "eh". Streetable normally aspirated 350c.i. chevys 400-425hp chevys are pretty common.
