I think it will look great once I install my ECE 4/6 drop. My Public Service Announcement for they day is wear your safety goggles/glasses. I had to grind the front rotors down and talked my self out of getting my safety glasses out of the shed. I was bothered by something in my eye last night and was able to go asleep and forget about it then this afternoon it came back. I have an eye doctor next door to the office so I went over for them to take a look. They ending up digging two pieces of they Coys out of my eye. Lesson learned.

Sinister · 02-09-2010, 09:41 PM

Nice, those will look great with the drop.

Painter D · 02-09-2010, 09:49 PM

oldblue1968chevy · 02-09-2010, 10:27 PM

BB72CHEVKT · 02-09-2010, 10:40 PM

Thanks for the nice comments guys! Anyone want to photoshop it for me?

**70cst** · 02-10-2010, 12:03 AM

I agree...once your truck is dropped it will loook sweet!!!

powell72 · 02-10-2010, 12:22 AM

Nice setup, can't wait to see it dropped.

72BlckButy · 02-10-2010, 08:55 AM

with Chris, can't wait to see that ECE kit on there.

What are the wheel/tire specs (BS, tire size)? (just a guess 18/20)

Are you keeping the patina? Any major rot?

*vegaschevy* · 02-10-2010, 09:11 AM

Got to love the Coys

This should give you an idea...

I think it's gonna look good!

C20-67_N_MO · 02-10-2010, 10:45 AM

Man Coys look cool!

And the truck with that lowered stance is not bad either.

18"x8", 4.5 Backspace with 255/45/18: 5x5 bolt pattern
20"x10" 5.0 backspace with 275/40/20: 5x5 bolt pattern

I am going to sport the patina. The hood is almost a full patina as well. There is no major rot and the cab corners and rockers are in great rshape. I have had the truck since about 94 and was a daily driver for about 4 years. I started buying parts back in 99 and got derailed by some illness in the family.
I hope to find a better place to work on it soon and get the drop installed along with the entire suspension then install the motor.

Thanks for the photoshop TroyzRus.

**72 Super** · 02-10-2010, 02:47 PM

It will look great lowered! looks like a nice solid truck too.

Thanks for the info! It's going to be one sweet truck when it's done.

bsm78 · 02-10-2010, 04:31 PM

JohnC · 02-10-2010, 06:25 PM

Looks good man.

BB72CHEVKT · 02-10-2010, 06:30 PM

I think it will also look better when I put the sport bumper I have on there. Anybody got some used SWB bed trim they want to sell?

72BlckButy · 02-10-2010, 10:35 PM

There's been several pieces of SWB trim on the parts board lately.

grs · 02-13-2010, 09:41 PM

You think his Coys wheels look ugly. Look at mine. They are 22's.

bsm78 · 02-14-2010, 08:02 AM
