Re: some pics of my truck
I visit my dad almost every week. He is right next to Calabasas High school. I am next to West Hills Hospital. It was cold in the mountains. Pool was frozen at my dad's place.

Re: some pics of my truck
BULL BUTTER!! I drive a school bus, and I gotta tell you that if my bus handled like my '69, the kids would never be the same after their ride home! On the other hand, if my truck handled like my school bus (40-ft long and about 18K lbs), then it and I would go our separate ways.

Re: some pics of my truck
Thanks guys. Very soon it'll be a 5 lug. I am trying to decide if I should lower it or keep it the way it is. I have plenty of time, hopefully I'll make up my mind.

Re: some pics of my truck
i see ocean!
i know that lowering your truck is like night and day handling wise. just bringing the center or gravity down makes all that difference. ...you probably already knew that though lol i dont worry about handling though, i make it go real fast...strait

Re: some pics of my truck
461 Pontiac, 438 to the wheels. Victor is off, installed TII intake with a plate so I can keep a factory hood. Never tryed it before. I was thinking 175 shot but never finished the install. My truck is lot cheaper to play with. I got it to tow the car instead of using a ford.

Re: some pics of my truck
Many a memories from Mulholland and Old Topanga cyn back in the late 60's with my girlfriend, now wife. Looks like the same old road as then. Would like to get back there one day. Nice truck to be cruising that road on. It's like driving "A Bus".......
