thanks

thanks! that wont be the ride stance though :(

Re: My 1959 apache project
 
that's ok, it's still a cool picture for your build file.. I did the same thing when I layed the body out on the floor of the shop and stuffed some rims and tires under it. it looked 100% slammed and I loved the look. But in reality, we can't all have THAT low of a truck if we want to drive it on normal streets.

What brand and size of tires did you use?
