Re: sleepy's 73 step

Thanks Im not sure what direction Im going to go on this one. My brother's in law used to be in a truck club called "California Step Sides" back in the late 70's So Im leaning towards a 70's style mild custom lowerd, wide ansen mags or wide tru-spokes, maybe frenched tail lights. Or just black primer and rims .
