Re: pics?

the rear has bottomed out a few times and if I didn't have c-notch the frame would be sitting on rear end, and it would be about 2" higher. the bolt in notch will be fine, and tires rub the inner fenders a little

Nothing super special, a little 355/TH400, custom leather interior. That's about it.

I can't find my old pics of the interior and stereo stuff, not a good one of the engine either, just a blurry one....these are all I have. Those Cragars started rusting and the selection of 5x5 wheels is very small so I powdercoated them black.

Re: pics?

Nice collection of rides TT. The truck looks tuff with the black wheels, real sinister looking. It looks good with the chrome ones too though.
