Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
I never commented on your build before but it is pure art. I followed it on here and another site, thinking it was tri five, and all I can say is amazing talent. I stopped watching for awhile when the work slowed down so I am glad that you shared finishing her up. I like the trucks 10 times more than the shoe boxes but that 210 may be my favorite. I can't wait for that build thread as she gets updated. Heck most guys would be proud to own her as is! I can't even imagine what you have planned and not mentioned. For some reason I can see you finding a deal on a wrecked McClaren and doing a full suspension swap and somehow make it look like the General intended it to be that way. Keep up the good work.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
Looking forward to the C4 stuff on the '55, something like that has been rolling around in the back of my mind for awhile.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
Love how this build is going! Keep up the good work. Is there any chance you could help me out with a few measurements? I have a couple C4 corvette front suspensions but I don't have the measurements between the upper control arms or the lower control arms, the nagle of the upper control arm mounts or the distance between the upper mounts and the lower mounts. I have tried to find them on different websites and I am not having any luck. Any help would be grateful!

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
Bam, your talents amaze me and if that 210 turns out as nice as I think it will be it's going to be AWESOME! Love the way your truck looks- bet you get a Million Smiles per Mile.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
I'm glad you were able to get your build thread back on this site. It's one of my favorites, and has given me alot of inspiration to work on my own truck.
I know what you mean about panel fitment issues. This has to be one of the hardest vehicles I have ever had to align doors on. They are curved everywhere, and the body lines always seem to be in the worst places for getting it to look right.
