Oh man, sweet truck! I'm not a big fan of small back windows but yours is looking exceptionally sharp! You gonna fill the side markers on the bed or leave it as is?

Good job, wish mine was as nice as yours!

Answers to some questions
 
Thanks for kind remarks....Nice to know all my hard work is paying off. The truck is lowered 2" in the front and 4" in the rear. I used coil springs and they actually work very well. I thought the handling and ride would be greatly affected by lowering it but it actually rides and handles better now. I did not change anything on the suspension besides the springs........lucky me, it just worked well.

Joe67 03-19-2003 12:09 PM

Very nice 67/8 :cool:
I love the cowl hood :burnout:

kenele 03-19-2003 12:25 PM

Beautiful truck..wanna trade it straight across for a 'burb? :D

1968GMC 03-19-2003 12:38 PM

1970 CST Short Wide 03-19-2003 05:35 PM

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet
Damn I like that

VDOG 03-19-2003 05:52 PM

Very nice truck. I gotta ask, what size rims?

Edmond 03-19-2003 05:57 PM

Sweeeeeeeet Truck man!! Amazing.
Hope one day mine looks just as sharp!!

Great how you placed the speakers by the way....

Cya,
Edmond

Vince M 03-19-2003 06:04 PM

Very nicely done.....and I like the color. The stance looks just right and if you have any specs on what you've done, it would be great to hear about them.

Can't tell you how far I'm behind you yet just suffice to say I'm way behind.

Blue Beard 03-19-2003 10:10 PM

Great looking ride..................Very clean

my 70 was lowered with just springs and came away with a good ride...............

would it do me any good to hold my breath..............that maybe some day your truck could sit in my driveway?

racedvl 03-19-2003 11:26 PM

Love the color. Very nice!

Hey guys...........the truck is lowered 2" front and 4" back. I used coil springs. The rim and tires are 18" Eagle Alloy-216 and the tires are Pirelli scorpion 255/55/18. Because I didn't relocate the gas tank, I mounted the speakers in speaker boxes, covered with matching carpet to the rest of the inside, on the transmission hump. Who really needs to have people riding in the middle anyway.......

rkkeith 03-19-2003 11:33 PM

sorry.....forgot to add answer to your question....the wheels are 18", 5x5 lug pattern, with 14mm offset. I converted the truck to 5 lug disk brakes.

BraveDave 03-20-2003 01:04 AM

is that the factory bench seat?

rkkeith 03-20-2003 05:48 PM

Bravedave...it is a factory bench seat, of course I had it recovered and stuffed.

Myride 03-20-2003 08:32 PM

One bad to the bone ride.

DARK OLIVE 72CHEYENNE 03-20-2003 09:23 PM

Hey...the wheels are 18x8 Eagle alloys on Pirelli Scorpion 255/55/18 tires.
