I finally got around to installing the license plate lights, under dash courtesy lights, and a nice aux power port ( to charge phones etc) under the dash.

Not much going on lately as I have been working on the 55 burban

Rods57 · 11-12-2013, 11:56 PM

Have a question, your front tires look good and fill up the fenders, what size are they? thanks

bowt1ed · 11-13-2013, 10:51 AM

It is my friend Mikes truck. I can ask him whatever you like. I have tried to get him onto the site but he is a very busy guy.

ChuckDriver:
Thank you very much sir

bowt1ed · 11-15-2013, 11:19 AM

Thanks fabguy. Appears he may not have a build thread. Interested in his suspension front/back, color of that blue and any available details on the build. Thanks much!

Thanks in advance! Jim

Alrighty, I will call him again this afternoon. I apologize as after I left him a message I had completely forgot about it.

bowt1ed · 11-18-2013, 02:19 PM

Thanks again. I've also got a camaro cllip, 10 bolt with fat bar 4 link and c/o in back. Like his stance and wondering what he had under and in it, including wheel/tire sizes.

I left 2 messages for him and am still waiting on him to call me back.
