Oh man, I didn't even realize it was a Smokey and the Bandit thing. Crap, now I have to relinquish my redneck credentials.

Fer79, the truck's stance is great. I have a thing for worn in stepsides as well.

gafiredog · 08-05-2008, 05:02 PM

hey killthewabbit, your gonna make us look bad. ( really, i didn't think about that either, thought fer79 just wanted the stars and bars on his ride.)

too high for my taste also...

I put 1ton springs (stiff) with a coil cut off to help with launch control, but since the local track has been sold & is now a trailer park, I don't see any track time at all... so I'm "de-tuning" it a little, and plan on lowering it via dropped spindles...

spr85gmc · 08-07-2008, 04:59 PM

well do it already it will look even tougher than now

cntryboy88 · 08-07-2008, 10:18 PM

Well, here is mine. Still learning this SBC stuff. Been a Mustang nut too long. Any ideas for this one?

Never too Late to be Converted, I Think your Truck Look's Pretty Good as is, It's Really Clean...........

Might Look Good to lower it a Little, Other than that i would leave as is......
