Oh, this is so hot. I'd add some pin striping to give it that edge I like. But regardless, this is one bad mofo.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
Well, I just traded for the truck so I'm still checking stuff out but it does have cpp discs in front with coils that look new and 225/70/15. The back is leaf with air shocks on a 9" and Mt Indy n-50s. Nothing fancy but she sits good.
P.s. thanks for having me. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
Yes, the rear wheel tubs are stock. I did trim about 3/4" from the lip on the wheel well opening. From the factory there's close to an inch and a half lip so there's still plenty material left. If I remember right the wheels are 4 1/2" backspacing. I used the factory rear end, I just had the axles redrilled to five lug. A lot of people swap to a '71/'72 rearend which is wider and in which case would probably need a 5" backspaced wheel. There's not a lot of clearance but enough. I really like the 10" wheel but didn't want to widen the tubs, this combination works well.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
This is my longbox 66. I'm not big on bags, I like to see them lowered but not touching the ground, in my humble opinion Some rake is important too.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
rustbucket66 - sharp looking truck!!! What the specs on your drop and tire sizes? That's about how I want my 66 longbed to sit.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
Thanks fellas. The wheels are Appliance tru-spoke fine wires, 15x10 in the back and 15x8 in the front. I've had them for years and they were pretty rusty so I had them repaired and respoked. Appliance has been out of business for years. I can't find a new wheel that is the same. Tires are 295's x50's in the back and 245'sx50's in the front, but I think I will go to a 60 series tire in the front. The front is dropped 4 1/2 inches - 2 1/2inch drop spindles and 2 inch drop springs. The back is dropped 4 inches with 4" drop springs.
