Lol I wish, I was too busy working to get down and pick it up. My problem is if I had the truck at home I would convince myself it was more important to stay home and put the bumpers on and all the new little stuff I have to go on. When in reality my customers would not be happy that I wasn't there working on their project! I don't have anything scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday so I plan to pick it up after class tomorrow and go to town on it!

[JRANGER]

Hah, yeah I know what you mean....With training for my upcoming fight I am always fighting the urge to work on the truck and workshop instead of training lol... Its so hard!!! Have fun Tuesday when you pick it up....

[Rusbuilt]

Oh I will!!

Sorry for the lateness, I was looking through the thread and seen this post. Just curious on why, I am looking at doing a full setup on my 68' just curious if you had a bad experience with them because they are a brand I'm considering. I love the truck bro, the front red and white clip is my new wallpaper.... So CLEAN!!!!

Thanks Man its cool you made it your wallpaper!! I had some small problems with CPP, I received the wrong lower ball joints first then the tie rod sleeves were the wrong ones and then my brake lines wouldn't work. But there products are really nice! It rides really good too! I would PM lolife99 he can tell you the best route to go, he really knows what he's talking about and the best places to buy them!

Oh wait, now I'm confused? I thought you were talking about Air Ride Technologies, my mistake, you were speaking on CPP then correct?

Will do, but I work slow, and my money doesn't always flow like I want. I have been doing some stuff lately tho, working on the engine swap and sprucing up the engine bay, I will get them up on photobucket and post this weekend.

Yes, mine is not on air it is a static drop 4.5" in the front and 6" in the rear. I need to correct my statement about air ride too. lol I use to not be a fan of air ride but it has grown on me with these old trucks, and I plan to install air ride on my next project!

Heck no! The guy that runs the shop had a death in the family and he's been out of town for the past 4 days!! Truck is locked up in his shop.. At least its safe I guess. He's suppose to be back tomorrow I believe. I sure am ready to get it, I am ready to drive it thats for sure!!

[Roninwolf]

Ahh well I figured since you hadnt posted in 5 days you had been too busy driving it around. Well hope you get it soon.

Basically I thinned down the rustolem paint with acetone and rolled it on with a thin roller. It does have texture but for what I'm doing it will turn out cool. I have one more step to finish the look I want. It should look cool once I'm done!

[Rusbuilt]

UPDATE!!! I know I haven't posted any progress in a while. I've been so busy at work and with school I haven't even had time to go get my truck! Well I have been working on a few things. here are some pics of my wheels, the first one is what they looked like when I picked them up, second is after I cleaned them and the third is the money shot! Polished up!!

[JRANGER]

those look great!
