Re: 1st outing since the redo!!

Sweet truck Prin - I really dig the classic look with the modern updates. Nicely done!

Talking Re: 1st outing since the redo!!

Very nice. I like the blue on the older trucks, not so much a blue person but on older trucks it's awsume.
Good wheel choice also. Everything about the truck looks right!

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: 1st outing since the redo!!

Thanks again!!! Original-71, I love your truck! Mine came with the woodgrain bottoms as well, but I decided to change them to the black. The wheels are Coys 20x10 and 20x8.5. 295/40 on the rear and 255/40 on the fronts. I will try to get some under hood and inside photos as well. Sorry about the delay. Oh yeah, my Dad bought the truck new and around 1975, he went on a cutting spree and installed a sunroof. Well, the trim actually stuck up a good inch from the roof. When I done the restore, I took the old one out and replaced it with a more modern flush sunroof. I will try to get pics of it as well.

And this was at the CBI show...
