I visit my dad almost every week. He is right next to Calabasas High school. I am next to West Hills Hospital. It was cold in the mountains. Pool was frozen at my dad's place.

BULL BUTTER!! I drive a school bus, and I gotta tell you that if my bus handled like my '69, the kids would never be the same after their ride home!

On the other hand, if my truck handled like my school bus (40-ft long and about 18K lbs), then it and I would go our separate ways.

Nice truck. Nice scenery. Nice pics. I love the west and the west coast. Would like to get back out there sometime.

Thanks guys. Very soon it'll be a 5 lug. I am trying to decide if I should lower it or keep it the way it is. I have plenty of time, hopefully I'll make up my mind.

i see ocean! :lol:

i know that lowering your truck is like night and day handling wise. just bringing the center or gravity down makes all that difference.

...you probably already knew that though lol

i dont worry about handling though, i make it go real fast...strait :burnout: :metal:

Re: some pics of my truck
 
Yeah, I already have one car that goes straight ok. I want this one to handle a little better.

my 72 ventura. Pump gas, uncorrected 11.4 @119 and embarasing 1.90 60' time. Alt is 2400 ft but weather station was reading around 4000 ft. They close that track down now.

Re: some pics of my truck
 
11.4 is quite respectible, especially at around 3000 ft.

461 Pontiac, 438 to the wheels. Victor is off, installed TII intake with a plate so I can keep a factory hood. Never tryed it before. I was thinking 175 shot but never finished the install. My truck is lot cheaper to play with. I got it to tow the car instead of using a ford.

Many a memories from Mulholland and Old Topanga cyn back in the late 60's with my girlfriend, now wife. Looks like the same old road as then. Would like to get back there one day. Nice truck to be cruising that road on. It's like driving "A Bus".......
