Thanks Chris......It has been 3 1/2 years of doing things here and there but finally I reached a point where I really like the way the truck is. Of course I am already thinking of either another truck/car or a ls3 turbo set up for this one. Will see what I decide..Im going to barret jackson this weekend in palm beach so who knows If i come home with something....

You better not trade or sell that truck! I see so many people build sweet looking trucks and talk about how much they cant wait to drive them and then SELL them the first chance they get! Better NOT!

Cleaning out picts of my cameras memory card I came accross these picts from my air ride install/four wheel disc install while I was waiting for my billet wheels. I thought I should add them as I use this thread as a diary of my truck..First picture is of member Raull and my self...then there are two picts of my youngest son at 11:00pm at night as he wanted to be in the garage and not got to bed hence him wearing his pj's..

I made it down to Barrett Jackson, looked over most of the trucks, feel free to ask if you have any questions about any of them...

big_al_71 · 04-30-2012, 09:59 AM

Well Friday night I went to a local cruise that they have every friday. I made it home just in the nick of time before the stormy weekend rain started. Sunday there was a car show that I wanted to go to so saturday night I got the truck show ready. Wake up sunday morning and boy it was pouring all day so obviously the show was cancelled

on the bright side now the truck has the cover on and is ready for the next show.

here are some crappy cell pictures from the end result

CC69Rat · 04-30-2012, 10:06 AM

Meh.. ok I guess ..

:Lol: just kiddin man.. looks great as always.

All dressed up with nowhere to go

CC69Rat · 04-30-2012, 03:39 PM

Ok, .. All you know you're my buddy, right ??

BUT --

Have you ever pictured this truck with a bright red interior? Say .. Red 71-72 buckets and a console with the billet cupholder insert? Or even custom leather buckets??

.. just a thought

you are my buddy...Not a bad idea at all but I am not doing anything else in the interior other than maybe re upholster the bench seat in black leather. There are some small things that I may change but this one truck is a wrap for now.

I am sure you seen the red interior of my old 65 el camino? I am a fan of red.
