I finally finished up the wood door to cover the air bag setup and topped it off with a bottle cap opener to use as a handle in opening the door.. it also doubles as the perfect tailgating accessory!

Thanks for the compliment.. I purposely went with 64/65 stainless caps.. I'm not a fan of 63 caps on lowered trucks, I like them more on K10's or C20's

Re: My 63 SWB BBW Build Frank

LOVE the truck! Can you give me some specs on your tire and rim sizes? Also some details on your front set up, how much drop do your front springs have? And I assume your spindles are 2.5" of drop?

Thank you, Wade

The truck has stock 73-87 C10 wheels to clear the disk brakes with 215/75 R15 tires.. 1.5 coils cut off stock front coils with CPP drop spindles.
