Are mirrors out of style now? I guess if you never drive it on the road, they are required to be street legal I know.
Sorry, had to poke at something. That is one sweet looking ride you have there man, very sweet. Looks simply awesome. |

Re: DONE! (maybe?)
Could you possibly share your lowering/wheel,tire specs with us?
Other than that my only suggestion would be to drop it off at my house sometime this afternoon.LOL |

Re: DONE! (maybe?)
Very nice squarebody. If you're going to shows trying to do well just remember to bring cleaning supplies and clean up the undercarriage. If you haven't yet, detail under the hood and interior as well and clean up any wires that don't look organized. And if the chassis isn't painted, try to spray bomb it at least. I had an 80Z28 I restored with a TON of help from a friend and used it as a DD for a year but was told by a judge at my last show I would have won my class if I just would have sprayed some black on the chassis.....

Re: DONE! (maybe?)
It's being organized by 5150 who has the roadster flat red blazer on here. He's gotten a ton of sponsors to come and just got Kevin Tetz from "Trucks" on TV to commit to be there. All proceeds go to the local Police and Fire so it's a good cause as well. Open to all year/model trucks. But the focus has been classic trucks. According to Bryan he got a lot of interest at the Nashville Goodguys show...
With the other show that moved from Pigeon Forge to maggie valley to white house, TN not going on this year, there should be a lot of vehicles there. They've been well organized and have some really cool trophies planned. I want to go but not sure how it's going to fit my schedule....

Re: DONE! (maybe?)
Stunning! By far the cleanest square out there right now. I am truly envious of the quality of detail you have in this build.
If you need some help getting the magazine editors involved, just let me know.

Re: DONE! (maybe?)
Jeff is just looking for a place to go that will allow his year truck in.
(Goodguys shows are great, but they are pre-73,... as you well know)

Re: DONE! (maybe?)
Yes, they were talking to guys about bringing their classics and several also owned square bodies but for obvious reasons didn't bring them to GG's

Wow! The underside is clean enough to eat off of, literally!
One beautiful truck. The attention to detail is a new standard.
