Caja_larga(my Long Box Build)
Hi this is my build.

I got this truck from my brother who had it for about ten years. It is an old rail road truck, It was a long bed step side. My brother put the long fleetside on and replaced the engine. I got it from him and am going to make it my daily. So far I had the seat redone, added disc brakes and a drop, and wheel & tires. more to come. for some reason I could not get these to show an image so here is a link.. some one feel free to post the images here..

Great looking truck. Can you provide some specs on this? Amount of front and rear drop, tire and wheels sizes?

Re: Caja_larga(my Long Box Build)
That truck is...words cannot describe the beauty.

What size wheels/tires are those? What's the backspace?
