1970c10swb with a 69 nose.

**special-K** · 06-27-2009, 05:32 AM

Grayharville,I`d start off with lowering it,4/6 or maybe 5 in the back,for an instant change in the direction you want.That`s the big one.You can always paint your wheels red for now.8" rallyes are pretty cheap to come by.But,any wheels will look good.Leave that body alone.

bad6772 · 06-27-2009, 06:28 AM

Kb3 is that Wilbur..I am guessing it is .WOW looks great
