Re: "Rice Rocket'
Random pic of truck. Should I lower anymore? If I leave it I may bring the front down a little more in the future (like that rake!) Or should I bring the whole thing down (spindles/blocks 2.5/2)
Also gonna weld up the misc. holes in the bed when dads car comes outa the shop, then maybe sand it down and put it in epoxy primer? If dad let me spray in the garage?  PS IGNORE THE FILTHYNESS lol

Re: "Rice Rocket'
well you should but some steelies on and put the original dog dish also your truck would probably look sick if you painted it like a cerrelean blue kinda like those old navy trucks and do the red stelies with the original red and chrome hub caps that would look cool oh well just my two cents
