Re: Redaddiction's Official Build Thread

Ok I was having trouble uploading some pictures of the rear suspension setup I did. So here we go.

Here are all the new parts ready to be put on. (Thanks to my mom who let me take them out all over her front hallway)



Here are all the new items laid out.




Before


After



And the junk that came off.


I meant to take more pictures but it was pretty straight forward. If anyone wants a picture of any particular part installed I can get it for you.

And how she looks all done up. I finally added my headlight bezels also. That makes a world of difference on how it looks.

Re: Redaddiction's Official Build Thread

Alright, all I accomplished this weekend was to acquire some new parts and start stripping them. I picked up a 67 grille, fenders and core support. Thanks Matthew.






More progress coming next week.

Re: Redaddiction's Official Build Thread

Impressive and unique build!!! Big thumbs up. I cant wait to see your front suspension finished with the drop coils. What did you shell out for that C4 rig??

Redaddiction And on a great projetc! When you get finished you will get more "thumbs up" than with a newer truck. These trucks are classics and always get the attention of on lookers. Keep us informed.
