My thoughts exactly...
I'm more the hotrod type than the lay-n frame type with my builds but I like em all.

Re: What I got done in the last few days

Im kinda partial to em to.
Mine was lowered back in the 80s actually buy someone who owned it @ that time. The front has drop spindles & chopped springs. the rear has a "c" notched frame, the axle is flipped & has lowering shackles. Primitive by todays standerds, but it works
