It's official, the first piece left this afternoon. The rear bumper has found a good home on a ochre swb fleetside here in town.

Would you say that the level 1 Coilover setup is equivalent to a 4/6 drop?

I would, and that is what the guys at Porterbuilt said.

C10_ustacould · 07-13-2015, 11:36 AM

Well, I have deposits galore, hope to start delivering this stuff soon.

Still need to sell the chassis, wheels, and fuel tank.

That's awesome! Good luck on the rest!

**lolife99** · 07-13-2015, 11:54 AM

congrats on getting stuff sold,...

**nlped** · 07-13-2015, 05:59 PM

That's good (& bad) Ernie. I hate to see you bow out on the build this far along, but I understand that these toys are certainly a financial risk. I hope you don't leave us once Shiro is parted... If the tank goes up for sale separate from the frame, put me on the list as a buyer.

Take care...

I'm very comfortable with our decision. Regarding the tank, I will put you on the list there are a few ahead of you.

Congrats........I guess. I hope another truck is in your future.

Good luck with the auction Buck. Hope it goes high for you. Your truck will be a great starting point for someone building a really nice one.

Thanks Nate, got a message from a guy in the UK that's interested... that will be interesting.

72BlckButy · 07-20-2015, 10:24 PM

Hope it works out. That's where a lot of trucks have been shipped over the last few years so that's a good sign.

Shiro's power plant is now an LSnone.

Here is Chris (Bowtie468) leaving with the new heartbeat for Miss Dawn's 63 Nova. I'm very happy it's going to a good home.

Great ! Now the Eagles are stuck in my head... thx a lot lol. Seriously, I'm sorry you had to get rid of your old truck. Was a great start for someone on their builds. Not the end of the world though, just get you another one someday and start all over. Will be even more fun next time around.
