Re: purgatorio

How's the progress coming on your truck? Also what brand/size rims and tires are you running on it?

Re: purgatorio

Ugg, I'm in love. Glad to see another high end build. I wish I would have had the time/patience to do a tube frame. Mine is approaching 3800 lbs, and I hope to see 1000hp. Lol. Should be fun.

Re: purgatorio

Finally made it out to Missouri and wow. I literally was speechless. I started clapping when I saw it. I've never seen this truck and today was the first time. Kyle is knocking it out of the park. Everything, amazing, the stance everything. Wow wow.

I am not exaggerating when I say this. I talked to Kyle twice before going out there. Everything was through text. He told me finish in August. I wasn't in agreement with raising the fenders and having this thing on the ground. It was a miss communication issue. I'm glad that happened though. Notice this thing is slammed but when you see other trucks like these that are slammed the bed looks too low. This bed was raised 2 and some inches. You can barely tell he added length to the fenders unless you know these trucks. Absolutely blown away with his work. Happy 1000%

I know the 47-53 uses that on the front of the hood. Mine is a 53 and according to lax truck I need two 3100 badges for each side and we are good. Don't know why I'm thinking there was a Chevrolet badge that's goes on both sides ....
