Re: Hey from Boise, ID
hey! thanks!! I gotta ask.. where did you get the rallye wheels on your truck? im planning on running those same wheels till i can afford 20"s.. My overall plan for the truck is to have a clean reliable daily driver, ability to drive really low, get some gas mileage out of it, enjoy the hell out of it!! I plan on running all the factory trim/chrome bumpers exc, two tones cobalt chevy blue and caddy pear white(maybe no these exact colors but pretty close) Just a reliable truck i can drive long distances!! More of my work is at www.kennysrodshop.com in the projects section, the 34 pickup chop and strech and dans 37 frame..
i like the truck cab lift system you designed!! very innovative!! -Mark Last edited by MacSic66; 12-04-2007 at 11:02 AM. |
