Re: 68 anniversary- more
Really, really nice truck. I spy shoulder belts too! Surprised nobody else noticed. Were those original to the truck? Do you mind sharing what the drop is ?

Re: 68 anniversary- more
I had shown this truck at a couple of local shows with no success, decided to take it to Bristol super Chevy this past weekend and actually won the ISCA award on Saturday and won its class sunday. I did not build the truck to win trophies but it is nice to have the truck appreciated. Thank you all for the nice words.

Re: 68 anniversary- more
Fish it has static drop 5 inches in rear and 3 in the front, removed and changed front stops and rides very smooth and easy like it did when at stock height
