Funny you should say that....
I was doing some hammer and dolly work on my d-side cab corner yesterday and simply amazed myself at how well it came out. Much better than the last body guy did with a dent puller and bondo. I remarked that I may have missed my true calling by becoming a Soldier. Wife said that with all the tools I have now, and the shop we are going to build on our land back home, that I should do this for retirement.
Rescue, Restore, and sell 60-66 trucks.
Just because this has been so incredibly fun to do!

I am so into what you are doing with these vehicles, cant wait to see this one through the process

First off thanks for your service. I would love to build cars everyday. I dont know that I will ever stop doing dentistry but when I slow down in the mouth I will be fixing cars in the garage.

Re: I dont no what I am building haha

This one should be pretty wild in a different fashion from the norm. The funny part is alot of this is being built with "Spare Parts" from his other builds. This one might throw you guys for a little bit of a loop. The rules of it are
1. Slammed on the ground
2. Enough power to destroy the rear tires and make enough noise to make you think the World is coming to an end.
3. Top must go.
4. All done on a working mans budget to keep it fun, yet nice enough to be a contender at the shows. (Yes it can be done)
5. Have fun the entire time building it!
This should be interesting!

Re: I dont no what I am building haha

Just wanted to thank Justin for the rear kit. He sent me all new brackets and new notch with out charging me. I think that is great customer service. As you know I did not buy this kit from him. So thanks

Re: I dont no what I am building haha

That's pretty awesome service....also shows to me he knows how awesome all your projects are and the coverage/attention they get from mags/this forum and it'll be a little bit of rolling advertising when complete so well worth some "freebies"

What is different about the brackets and notch? Sub and truck frame should use same parts?

Do you have any tech. info on the suspension numbers for the front kit? I havent been able to find any info regarding camber, castor, bumpsteer, or roll center throughout travel. Sent a pm to justin couple days ago but havent heard back yet.

Should be cool build.

We have several diifferent rear brackets we make for the trucks (c10 trucks)
Speaking to Eric on the phone I told him we would send out some different rear brackets and notches we have and explained to Eric this will not cost any money on his side since all the parts he had were not used at all.

For specs you can call me at the shop 805 485-0382 I will be more in glad to go over with you on the phone and on the questions you have as well.

Re: I dont no what I am building haha

There are several types of rear notches for these trucks. It's nice to know you have several options for install no matter what notch you have installed.
