Project "la sancha" 69 SWB
 
1 Attachment(s)
Well I purchased this truck in June of 2012 and drove it around for over a year. I finally decided to do a little work to it in September of 2013:
Porterbuilt Mild Dropmember (front & rear)
airbags
Accuair ilevel air management system
22" Coys w/Nitto 555 tires
Moser axles
Disc brakes (front & rear)

I'm keeping the original 350 engine for now and the 350 transmission, just gonna give them some love by clean them up and painting them. Here is my progress so far.

I assume you're going to 5 lug axles? Look forward to more progress. Keep up the good work

You can load 5 pics per post.
You just have to upload pics one at a time.

That depends on what you are trying to load them from. If your like me and mostly use your iphone then you can only do one pic at a time :waah:

Nice looking build you have, can't wait to see more updates and pictures

Looks like a really clean truck to start with, is that original paint? Subscribed.

Yep, I mostly use my iphone or ipad. My kids hog up the desk top. I feel as if I have to make an appointment in order to use it. I will try and get on the computer this evening to up load more than one pic at a time. mcbassin; I wish it was original paint, but unfortunately its been painted.
