Yeah, Yeah, I know. Pictures did it alot of justice in the before shots. It did have it's issues though. It was better to take care of them then instead of waitning till it got real bad.

Here is my 68 K20 burb.
When my pop gave it to me in 1993, she was sitting in an avocado grove on a fast track to rotting away. Started the restoration in 1994 - still not "finished" but has come a long way.

Pretty cool to see the before and after pics. One thing I have heard and found out is that they are never done.

Thanks for the comments. Front springs (w/stock spindles) are cut 2 rounds and the rear is bagged and sitting about 1.5" off the frame. I don't drive it more than about 20 miles from home since it is in transition to a step notch in the rear and 2.5 drop spindles and bags in front. I forgot to measure before I started all this...but it was way up there...LOL!
