Re: Project Cappacino.

Nice job on the old girl.
Have you been able to find headers that will clear the CPP tubular engine stands?
If you haven't started looking into it yet trust me you don't even want to mess with it I have a better solution.

Re: Project Cappacino.

The truck was a steel floor but I am now converting it to a wood floor bed. Did a mock up bolting of the box and then give it a test fit. Starting to look like a truck again after almost 2 years.

Re: Project Cappacino.

Well finally had some tires put on the rims. Now I can't wait to bolt them on and check out the stance.

Tires are Firestone Wide Oval Indy 500's
Front 245/40/17
Rear 275/40/17

My girl has a static 3.5 front and 5 inch rear drop.
