Re: "Rice Rocket'

Re: "Rice Rocket'

gonna ask about a hood/pass fender (ruined my hood and have half dozen dents in fender lol)

*Means I NEED TO HAVE IT lol

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

Random pic of truck. Should I lower anymore? If I leave it I may bring the front down a little more in the future (like that rake!) Or should I bring the whole thing down (spindles/blocks 2.5/2)

Also gonna weld up the misc. holes in the bed when dads car comes outa the shop, then maybe sand it down and put it in epoxy primer? If dad let me spray in the garage? :devil:

PS IGNORE THE FILTHYNESS lol

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

i like it as is and i would like it lower, yall look like yall live in a quiet place lol i would probably like it

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

well i think your truck looks fine are you running 5 lug or 6

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

not trying to be a smart butt, have you tried adjusting your hood hinges to bring the hood down?

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

5 lug front 6 lug rear..one day I'll buy the conversion axles (painted my axle, have gears I want, and new brakes/gasket/oil)

AND!
Cut too big of a hole for my rubber gromit for breather in valve cover, gonna try to get a nother VC instead it leaks oil everywhere

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

well you should but some steelies on and put the original dog dish also your truck would probably look sick if you painted it like a cerrelean blue kinda like those old navy trucks and do the red stelies with the original red and chrome hub caps that would look cool oh well just my two cents
