Rob
Butler from Milwaukie Oregon submitted this shot of his 1977 GMC Jimmy. This Jimmy
is not only really cool looking, but is also somewhat famous. Rob's rig was one of
20 trucks featured on a poster by AutoArt Magazine and also had a cameo in a
Bigfoot documentary called "Sasquatch Odyssey" that aired on The Learning
Channel. The beast gains ground clearance with five inches of lift and 35"
tires. An 8,000 pound Warn winch and four 500,000 candlepower lights ensure that Rob
makes it back from off-road expeditions. Under the hood lies a proven 350/350 combo.
Thanks for the picture Rob.
Bruce from California sent in this shot of his
77' K5 Blazer 4x4. The red Blazer's 350 remains mostly stock and has a new smog
set-up to remain legal in California. The K5 also features a 4 inch suspension lift
for added ground clearance. Thanks for the picture Bruce.
Chris
Harker submitted his 1984 GMC Sierra Classic. The GMC is powered by a 350 that has
been bored .040 over, stuffed with a hotter cam, and expends spent gasses through Heddman
headers into a 2.25 inch true dual exhaust.. Chris plans to add new heads to the
mill and possibly multi-port fuel injection. Behind the 350 is a four speed
tranny. Chris also hopes to swap it for a th400. The current four speed sends
the HP's to a 12 bolt 3.08 posi rearend. On the inside Chris's ride is filled with
Auto-meter gauges, a Clarion CD player, Infinity speakers and sub being fed 400 watts, and
seating for the rig is courtesy of Camaro bucket seats. Chris rolls on 32x11.5x15
BFG AT's wrapped around 15x10 AR Atlas rims. Thanks for the picture Chris.
Will
Triplet of Emerson, Arkansas sent in these before and after shots of his 81 GMC.
Will has rebuilt the engine with a set of TrickFlow 23 degree heads, CompCams 270 Extreme
Energy stick, Holley carb and intake, and a recurved distributor. After finishing
the engine he turned to the transmission and upgraded it with a 2500 Dayco stall converter
and a shift kit. The rear holds 3.73 gears and an Auburn pro series
differential. With the running gear in order, Will turned his attention to the body
and interior. He did all the bodywork, sprayed the paint, and even reworked the
interior. According to Will the truck runs 13.88 @ 96 in the 1/4 mile. He's
hoping that a little tweaking will bring him into the high 12's. Thanks for the
pictures Will.
Josh Pavia
from Yuma, Arizona sent in these pictures of his incredible looking 1973 Chevy's fresh
restoration. One of the most striking features of this truck is the incredible paint
job. According to Josh the exterior was sprayed with 1998 Chevy Metallic Forrest
Green, the paint was then color sanded, topped with three coats of clear, and finally
buffed to a perfect shine. Under the hood of this green monster lurks a 454 that has
been bored .060 over, stuffed with a huge cam, and topped with an Edelbrock intake and
Holley 670 Street Avenger. The rat relies on headers and dual Flowmaster mufflers
and pipes to flow exhaust out the back. A TH400 transmission and 4.10 gears put all
of this power to the pavement. Josh's future plans include installing bucket seats
and a new steering wheel. Thanks for the picture Josh.
