Wooo Hooo!....Featured in CCT!

What a thrill it is to see what represents hours and hours of work and many many late nights (my wife swears I had a girl friend!) in Custom Classic Truck.

Much thanks to John Gilbert and Rene (C10King) for having his awesome get-together's that brought John and my truck together to shoot some great pics.

Link to feature on CCT website below and there is a 4 page feature in the November issue.

Re: Wooo Hooo!....Featured in CCT!

Congrats, Jim!!! Well deserved!! I've always like your truck and it has inspired a few things on my truck. FWIW, the mag article pics on the website don't seem to do it much justice compared to pics I've seen you post of it. Looks like I'll be hitting a bookstore this weekend to pick up the magazine!

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Great job, Jim! She probably never dreamed about being a magazine truck when she rolled out GM wearing ochre, huh!
