Those new "Matte Finsih" grey Coys are my favorite wheels from Coys.
I'd like to see a set in person.

big_al_71 · 10-24-2011, 10:02 PM

Well it was decided last night that we would tackle the rest of the build in my house's garage. We started right around 7:15pm tonight and by 9:30pm the garage was cleaned all the tools put away and ready to begin installing all the new goodies either tomorrow or wednesday. I know you all like picts so here are a few to show the progress. Everything is off the truck as far as the control arms uppers and lowers, all springs, shocks, spindles, hubs etc.

I am not too keen on those car stands I prefer my lifts at my shop all day long and Raul crawls under that truck everywhere without a concern.

I have to go buy some hardware tomorrow and it should be all buttoned up. I know how we al like pictures so here are some picts of today's work. Even one of y brothers got into the action.

Mike I am worried that it may happen. However next time it will be a whole different truck all together. I am looking for a chevy 1500 swb reg cab or a 68 c10 to do a complete rocker laying style with full frame off built that I will do slowly at my own pace unless I find one finished that I can improve from. Not in a hurry just looking for one of those deals that cant pass up.

**67cheby** · 10-26-2011, 11:58 AM
