Time for a cruise! I like how your seat came out. Can’t wait to see it with the door panels. Fabulous looking truck.

Re: 57 Fleetside C4 build

Thanks Guys. I did take a short drive up and down the driveway a couple of times and seems to drive ok except it seems to ride a little harsh. Now I have to get it aligned and take a longer road test. One thing I did notice it definitely
is quick without much throttle. Steve

Re: 57 Fleetside C4 build

I put about 10 miles on the truck after getting the alignment done. My first observations are the ride is a little harsh, the braking power could be more positive but drivable and the truck is pretty fast and is loud by what one of my neighbors told me. Still waiting on the door panels and sun visors. I am going to look at the coil overs to see if I can soften them. I am happy with everything, but it does not drive like one of my 442's. Still getting use to everything and these are pretty small inside. Steve
