looks sweet man
Patience is the state of endurance under difficult circumstances, which can mean persevering in the face of delay or provocation without acting on annoyance/anger in a negative way; or exhibiting forbearance when under strain, especially when faced with longer-term difficulties ![]() Last edited by nbpro; 10-10-2010 at 07:56 AM. |

Re: Finally "Silvers" build thread!! ('78 swb 2wd silverado)
Yeah I agree Charlie. I really like that master cylinder too. I saw it earlier on in his build and forgot he had it. It looks good. I'm gonna have get me one of those to go with my rear disc brake kit too. Me and Dennis have the same rear disc kit.

Re: Finally "Silvers" build thread!! ('78 swb 2wd silverado)
http://www.blackbirdscustomtrucks.com/index7.html thats where i got mine. Randy was a great guy to deal with.
i do know there is a vendor here that copied the blackbirds kits bracket. that may be a cheaper route. idk for sure though.
