Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66

Finally back on the road with new suspension. ECE 2"/4" lower coils. 255/60-15 tires. I'll be going with some 255/70-15's when these wear out.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66

Very shortly, this will be my daily driver. I plan to add power steering, 700r4 tranny, and vintage air. Like others, I have plans for tons of other upgrades, but it has to be operationally sound, first and foremost. Paint will come last. It will be '66 Madeira Maroon with white cab and stripe. Already have rest of trim for sides.
