Re: My Winter Build 54 Chevy 1300

I read entire thread. Looks absolutely stunning and wonderful but left me thinking is anything like this remotely possible to do now with hyper inflation and supply issues?

Out door pictures

Finishing my wiring under the Dash. I left my wires long test everything then I mount the fuse/relay box under the dash and shorten the wires(solder all).

Install the console and passenger seat.

Few adjustments.

DONE

I used Dakota Digital for guages, GPS speedometer, outdoor temp, and shift display. Very happy with the results.

99% perfect. I'd like to see the same distance from wheel to wheel opening for front and back...

Re: My Winter Build 54 Chevy 1300

curiuos what your ride height is. looks low so, in my case, I would need to air it up quite a bit to get over the stupid huge curb on my driveway. your driveway looks to be fairly flat. mine is quite steep.
looks awesome anyway, better get some seat time before it gets ugly out there.
