HI Mark,

All I have is the shockwave from Air Ride up front. It's about one inch off the ground at the crossmember with all of the air out.

Thanks Kabwe! I can't tell how much I want to go to Brothers show, but work calls and without the job there's no truck if you know what I mean. I will be there next year for sure.....I hope.

Cal, Very well deserved win. The amount of time you have put into it shows. I thought I had posted something but it must have been in the voting area.

Thanks for checking out my build. It's a 350 with flowtech headers and Summit Racing's flowmaster type mufflers. It also has gear drive timing that make that whining noise.

Re: 58 GMC Project

Kinda like the ribbon atop the present...Very Nice!


BTW, I can envision your truck in one of the classic truck magazines within a year...If I'm right, you will owe me a 6 pack of beer!
