54bobby Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 does anyone know if these trucks came with a paint job like this? after an inspection, it looks like the pass side is a rattle can and a bad one at that, drivers side looks great w/ good clear.

ComancheKid45 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 The 2 tone was popular on pickups back in the 80s, so i definently think it could be factory. Any photos of the underside? Overall it looks like a very nice truck! :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
54bobby Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 will get underside pics up soon. no rust under there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuit Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I imagine the silver is original but the two tone is added on. Metallic silver is a pretty rare color (welcome to the club, brother) throughout the model years in various shades. Can't help with your bolt problem but on the list I'm seeing it does differentiate between sides on Rockauto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exgrayxj Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Stolen truck alert! JK That is a very nice looking truck, even more remarkable for the part of the country you are in. My Florida since new '90 doesn't look that good. Great options, nice interior, looks to be a really nice truck. You will like, they are addictive. I would like to pick up every one I see that are being parted out, since parts are so hard to find around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exgrayxj Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Chrome rear bumper ... don't let Hornbrod near it ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
54bobby Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 Chrome rear bumper ... don't let Hornbrod near it ... are chrome rear bumpers on the rare side for our trucks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuit Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Yes. Hornbrod also has chrome plating on 90% of the exterior surfaces on his truck that can be chromed. The paint is also silver. That give you an idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Yes. Hornbrod also has chrome plating on 90% of the exterior surfaces on his truck that can be chromed. The paint is also silver. That give you an idea? That's an exaggeration. The fender flares are black as well as the tires. You also forgot to mention the mostly chromed undercarriage. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

54bobby Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 is there a way to tell if my diff is a 410 or a 456 w/o jacking her up and counting rotations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParadiseMJ Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Look for the tag on the side of the diff cover. Some still have a tag...and that truck looks clean enough to have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
54bobby Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 which is the more desirable for the 2.5? the 410 or the 456? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarfoot Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Good looking truck, looks like someone took good care of it. I'm sure you have the 410 gears and it would be the steal of the year if you had a D44. Power windows and locks? When and if I ever paint mine the visor in storage will go on. AND ALL THE CHROME! too. If I could just find the ultra elusive chrome rear bumper and a set of Crager SS's. we'd be done. I got an Infinti M30 with the Nisson ZX 300... we can go chase each other on the highway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
