Nice pics! Thanks....

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

The rear had cpp 4in drop springs with 2in drop blocks. So 6in drop in the rear. The front had cpp 3in drop srings with a 1/2 a round cut off. Probably around 4.5 in the frt. Tires were I think G78s. It rode pretty nice for staic. Bump stops trimmed.

Nice, if I remember right, you bought yours like that, you haven't painted it right?

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

That's correct. The patina is natural, the wheels and engine compartment have been painted, that's it.

Some really nice trucks here...Question about drop springs: Has anyone noticed settlement after a while using drop springs? IOW...if I use 2.5 drop sprindles with 2" drop springs can I expect more than a 4.5" drop after say 500 miles or so?

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

My new project

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Clean up and satin clear coat? perfect "original patina" truck.

How do you flip the photo???
Oh how I miss my dead computer.
:waah:

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Cool Truck, what is your lowering info?

Great stance, what is your lowering and tire info?


This is for anyone that can answer it. Anyone with 2/4 drop or more could you tell me your mesurement from flat ground to fender lip.

Thanks in advance.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

This truck is awesome, I don't know how I feel about the wire wheels, but the rest of the truck is almost identical to how I see my truck turning out over the next few years.

Charleston SC, I'm headed down there this afternoon.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

64

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

I thought 66 was the only year for reverse lights?

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

They became stock in 66.
But you could order many options for earlier years.
.
Many guys still add them today.
That may be the case here with his truck.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Oh interesting

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Yes they were an option in 64 and became standard equip. in 66

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

What stock steels do you guys run with that have front Disc brakes?

I'm going for a stock look but lowered.

Thanks.

http://https://scontent-a-sjc.xx.fbc...08667850_n.jpgthese wheels are 15x8" Camper Specials with 225/75-15 tires 21/2' drop spindles with 2'dropped springs and 5' dropped springs in back

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

I had the same problem Desert.Chevy. I found some 15" "Camper Specials" They are stock for our trucks so they use the hubcaps and there 8'' wide with an offset that will accommodate the disc brakes. I haven't figured out how to post a picture on here but you can check it out on the 60-66 chevy.com Facebook pagehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/191006017617783/ or my personnel https://www.facebook.com/rickeylee.rogers

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Thank you, it's a 3 inch drop front and just TJ springs in the rear right now. Drop spindles and bags planned for summer.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Springs only

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Nice truck. How bad rusted are the floor pans?

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Thank-you!! The floors are nice. The pass side rocker is the worst. As soon as this crazy weather changes I have plans to replace both rockers. I like this 64 because it's a factory air truck. Check out my post (Lucky Find)

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

That thing is perfect. Fix the rockers and leave everything else alone. I love it. I wish mine didn't have spots of new primer paint on it and a primer door or I'd do the same as yours.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

I agree.
In fact, I wouldn't replace the whole rocker.
I would do something far less intrusive and just patch the rot.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

New member. Just bought my 63' a month ago. I thought this should be my first post considering this was my first mod.
CCP kit -springs, shocks & swaybars
Front- 3' lowing springs with 1/2 coil cut, so it's probably 4' total
Rear- 4' lowering springs with 2' drop blocks, 6' total

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

That's actually a really good idea, I'll have to consider that for mine.

Welcome to the board ratride, that's a beautiful truck. Is that freshly restored?

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Welcome aboard, & nice truck! Although I must say it appears to be a '65 instead of '63.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Yes 65'.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Nice truck RatRide....I like the stance.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

We're having a truck meet here in GA this Saturday the 15th. If you're close enough come on out. Detail here.
