Re: my 69 & my bros 72

Both trucks are very nice.

Which one is faster?

Ya'll need to ride over to Canton for their cruise-in that they have every 3rd Saturday.

It's about time you posted up some more pics of that truck.

Your "brother" has an amazing looking truck as well. Get him on the board!

Re: my 69 & my bros 72

Boy, that's a tough call.

Both look good in their original form, but after seeing that photoshopped picture of yours makes me want to vote for lowering it and running torque thrusts.

Decisions, decisions.....

You can't go wrong in either case. These are 2 of the best looking "stock" trucks I've seen, but the photo shopped wheels look great too.

it's is a very tough call, I like original looking trucks but I think they both would look sweet lowered with some Torque Thrusts on them.

Re: my 69 & my bros 72

If you decide to lower them, I would personally not hack them up up. Do things that are completely reversible. Just my $0.02. Beautiful trucks in any case.
