Re: How about some pics of 47-59

The rear bumper was a fleet side that was flipped so we could bring the exhaust out the center and keep the truck super low. Turned out really well but it was quite a challenge to get the exhaust around all the suspension and gas tank then to the center exit. The bumper itself was easy to flip. It was trimmed a little to bring it closer to the bed width.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Very fast and can hookup if you are good on the throttle. Wide open is a waste of time until you are above 60 mph! My wive loves to do block long burn outs.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Very fast and hooks up pretty well if you are good with the throttle. Wide open is a waste of time below 60mph!

It has a '79 Camaro front clip with Ridetech components and Shockwaves. I also installed a Flaming River rack & pinion system to improve the drive.
