Any new wheels in the "new plans"?
Like I've always said,... your truck deserves a nice set of billet wheels!

That is something that it is going to happen sooner or later

big_al_71 · 10-06-2011, 08:39 PM

Not much of an update other than a great clean up of the interior tonight and I added "my version" of a choke delete emblem on the radiator support copying n2billets version

and another on my glovebox lid

I always felt that the glovebox door was just too empty...

**67cheby** · 10-06-2011, 09:56 PM

Sylvester is going on AIR!!!!

I spent some time on the phone speaking with Justin from Scotts Hot Rods he answered all my questions and helped me on making the right descisions. After going over everything I went ahead and pulled the trigger. Now I am anxiously waiting for the either the white truck or the brown truck

I have been kicking my self in the butt for not doing this from the beginning. I am super fortunate that member Raull is going to pretty much do all this for me at his garage while I will be the helper

If Raul would not had pushed me finally to do it I would still be thinking about it.

Here is the list to what I believe will be it for a little while till it is finished then I will finally change my wheels for once and for all. hopefully i will get a great year end bonus so I could splurge on wheels...Early next year if I ever.

D52 BLK Wilwood Front W/ Pads
1 Parts D52 Blk Wilwood Rear W/ Pads
1 Parts Front Disc Brakes 12' D&S
1 Parts Rear Disc Brake kit 12 Bolt Rear
1 Parts Rear Flex Lines
1 Parts Front Flex Lines
Discount 10% Discount -
1 Parts Wilwood Pro Valve
1 Parts Wilwood Master 260-855 Wilwood
1 Parts Upper & Lower A-Arms, Bags, Brackets , Shocks
1 Parts Rear Bag Kit for Traling Ams- Running Early Classic
1 Parts ARC 400E-
Parts 2pr. External Ride Height Sensors

I had already purchased the cpp notch kit and the lowering blocks from boris (way2lo)

So stay tuned as hopefully we will tear into this truck by the end of the month as we have to move Raul's stepside to the body shop and his camaro back to my house and then it will be showtime.

My truck will not be laying frame but I am hoping that it will be nicely tucked so I will have my fingers crossed.

also say tuned for all the parts coming off my truck will be in the for sale section, stock calipers, drums, upper and lower control arms with new ball joints and ECE lowering spring front and rear two inch front and six inch rears.

VA72C10 · 10-11-2011, 08:28 PM
