New from East TX.
Hello , Cody Hicks here from Longview, TX. I'm 31 and been into truck scene since I could drive. I have a few S10's and just picked up a 1950 chevy 3600 for a new project today. Occasionally I build a truck or two a year for others for side work. Mostly doing air suspension, custom frames and some paint and body.

Here is my 97 xcab, 95 single cab I'm still re-building and the '50 I just picked up.










New project loaded up today

As it sat in a field in Reydon, OK



This is a GMC I just finish for a friend. Back half frame and air ride.



Before pic, stock S10 frame, static drop and mix match wheels. Oh and it's LS powered.

Re: New from East TX.
I looked at both of your posts, some nice work Cody, you have a lot of talent, hope you can share with our site. Looking forward to seeing more, I usually am into huge 4wd's but just bought my 2nd S10 with a small block, have some plans but prob not as forward as yours, our roads suck bad up here in the boonies, still gotta build what ever I can, all for fun and some profit, mostly fun.

Sorry didn't see this and I haven't been online I a while. I can prob get to it over the next month or two once I'm moved into my new house. If you still need it done. Let me know.

Get with me when you can take a look at it. If work will let me, maybe I can help with your move. I have a trailer.
