Re: Longbike 57 chevy truck build.
Great build!! I hope you build the F100 after you finish this one. I drove both when I was growing up. The F100 was my dad's shop truck. The Chevy was my own personal truck. Both would jar your teeth with their leaf spring suspension. I didn't think much of it back then though. LOL

Re: Longbike 57 chevy truck build.
I love that color of blue. Can you tell me what the name and manufacturere is? Awesome Job all around.
Seeing giant mile stones like this one being met makes the rest of us that aren't quite there yet to be more motivated and inspired. Keep up the nice work. Bartman

Re: Longbike 57 chevy truck build.
I gotta agree, looking good. I'd be pulling up my favorite shop chair and just staring at it at the end of the evening.
