Re: Project 7deuce

Them are some great lookin Trucks. Ive never been big into the low rider thing but the engineering and fab work you do is amazing. I have a 56 chevy Bigwindow Short Step thats going to be my next project and some of your Ideas have inspired me. I really like the front suspention in your truck. I am thinking I want to do something similar on my 56. GREAT BUILD.
