Sheet metals back on, took her for a spin and love it. I was shocked on how well it road down the road. I thought it was going to ride like a brick with such a drop but she rides nice. Waiting on new rims and tires the old ones up front rub turning hard.

Well I love the truck. Looks good with my spraycan paint job, rides good hardly ever bottoms out even on our sweet northeast roads, and what a feeling bringing something from the 50's back to life.

Great build thread looks very similar to mine except, yours is already on the road! Congrats, what do you think of everything?

Re: zenchal26 project 57
 
Damn your truck turned out nice!! I'm using the exact same lowering hardware as you have. The 3" dropped axle along with mono leafs. How are you finding the ride and handling? Mine won't be on the road until spring but I'm chomping at the bit to drive it already.

Man I love the way this thing sits.
