Raul - Did you have to trim the lip of your rear step fenders? Assuming it's not drivable that low (?) How close are you to the inner bedsides?

Regardless of $ brother, if you've got it I say do it. You have one life, one time around. Enjoy it. Just my .02.

And, yes .. We definitely need to have an 'South East Coast C10 bash' like we talked about. Swap Meet spaces, Open show, etc. Maybe do it somewhere around the GA / FL line (?) donate the funds to Christmas for Kids or something. We'll work it out.
