Road shots, rolling
Had a nice cruise today to Shelby NC and got some good road shots of my truck, thanks to Matt and Heath.

Re: Road shots, rolling
Hey RaceAGMC, that's a nice looking truck right there. I looked to see if you had a thread dedicated to it but I didn't find one. I saw where you were talking about getting your wheels. That thread had a little info but I think the thread was a few years old. What drop and wheel back spacing did you end up going with. Are you running a notch out back? Any interior pics?

Re: Road shots, rolling
Also, it's nice to see a 69/70 with an actual 69/70 front clip every now and then.

Re: Road shots, rolling
It's a 4-1/2" drop in the front with a spindle/spring. In the back its7" using a 5" spring and 2" block. No build thread, it would have moved way to slow. It took me years to get to this point. As for the wheels, they are 20x8.5 and 20x10. I'm not sure what the back spacing is on the front, but I could have used a little more, the back is 5.5" and it's perfect. I'm running a Porterbuilt bolt in notch. No pics of the interior. It's pretty plain. I haven't done anything to it just yet.
