Re: 10 year resto getting allmost done PICS Lots

That is a SUPER NICE TRUCK, and I also really dig the blue!!
From the pics it looks like you have the brake booster mounted closer to the firewall than stock, can you give some details as to how you did the install and is the booster going to interfere with the steering coulumn mounting brace? TIA ...Randy
