Re: Having fun
Those are vet lights, came with the truck when I picked it up in VA. Ive done alot of work on the engine, Ill try to get a vid of a burnout one of these days. The 4 buttons on the panel are lights. They show when I have a turn signal on. i wanna redo the panel and move them.

Re: Having fun
I went with a 4/2 drop for a baseline. I think next Ill save up for drop spindles. I also have some wheelie bars (for looks) I want to put on. The front wheels are 15x8 with 4.5"bs and the rears are 15x12 with 7"bs. The rear tires are 29x15.50 MT sportsman pro.

Re: Having fun
OK-Been looking at vette tail lights, I am now skeptical these are Vette tail lights. All the vette lights I have seen are oval, not rectangle like these. If they are vette lights, what year?

Re: Having fun
That's a really nice choice of wheels in the right diameter with a great stance!
ZR1s had rectangle lights.

Re: Having fun
1990 zr1s got square tail lights, 1991+ all other c4s got rectangle lights. Before 1990 all corvettes had round taillights. C5 and c6 have the oval tail lights your talking about.

Re: Having fun
Looks like a ZR-1 style roll pan. They are fiberglass, popular late 90's. Haven't seen them advertized lately.
