Can you help me identify these trucks?
Curved gullwing baseplates got me stumped.

| Looks like they say Gullwing on them, but haven't seen the rounded baseplate like that before. Also appear to be new school hole pattern, probably newer Gullwing trucks. |

| Yeah - could be frankentrucks - I've just never seen curved baseplates like this, and not sure about the hangers either. They came with this great old zorlac deck I recently got (from someone who didn't know either). Hoping to tap the collective brain here ... |

| Had a set of those early/mid 90s on a Evol Rawls. Always thought they were a Shadow variation from that era. Not real helpful, I know. |

Those baseplates are from the early/middle 90's, but I was never aware of Gullwing making wider trucks back than.
My guess, Franken-wings? The owner used some wider hangers (from the very early 90's- possibility Gullwing Street Shadow hangers?).
Just speculation, folks. |

| So is the deck double drilled? Or just new school pattern? |

| Don't know yet - it's got a shitty regrip job on it, unfortunately, instead of the original ragged grip I would have preferred. I just got it, so I haven't even pulled the trucks off or de gripped it. I like 'em skated hard. |

Gullwing little G baseplate.
I'm not sure about the hanger though. |

Thanks to strohsbro2's little g tip, I came across these 90's ads ...
So - I think I can say the baseplates are 90's Shadow 2's. Although I could not find a pic of little g baseplates or trucks, it seems they were narrow street trucks anyway. May have used these baseplates, too. Still no idea about the hangers. Thanks for all the input! |
