Re: 1957 chevy family truck

How many coils did you cut? I love how low it is but would be to low for where I live. I'm going to be welding in a nova clip the luxblue way this winter and selling off my dropped axle front end parts.

I don't know, but by the looks of the bicycle you should refrain from parking your truck while drinking. You've parked your truck on the ceiling, LOL
Great looking truck.
