How is your truck lowered? Drop spindles and drop springs? Gimme the details please! What paint codes?

I dropped the front with 73-87 2.5 drop spindles and 1 inch springs. The back is lowered 5 inches with drop springs. I did not notch the rear.
As far as paint codes, it is rustoleum 2x lagoon blue satin and satin white on the top bought at Home Depot.

Re: My 63 is road ready...

Very Nice! Just spotted your truck in the Faux-tina paintjob thread while researching for a similar paintjob when I get that far. Got the page bookmarked, thanks for detailing out the way you did the paint!!!
