Looks nice... one thing.. and you're gonna hate me for this.. :lol: .... "knew" is the past tense for "know" as in "I knew that guy."

You want "new." :D

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!

my trig and algerbra are great, but my spelling and gramer sucks. Of course i knew that but i had a brain fart..

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

Brass Monkey,that funky junky...No matter what song,that thing`s gonna rock.

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

Nice work. What do you have for front susp? It sits way low for a 6 hole front & no motor...

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

Nice, I didnt know you had it in ya SK...+5 respect points!

Looks like you got a good plan going on with that truck 57SP...keep us updated!

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

Doin`alright for an old sage,huh?:lol:

Hey 67sailplane,I can`t wait`til it`s done.But,take your time,I can wait.Your patience is showing on that truck and will only show more by the time it`s done.

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

Lokking good :metal: keep us posted w/ lots of pic's :c2:

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

nice work! Got more pics of the GMC out front?

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

hey cornfed63

ya if you notice there is a shot of one of the coils laying on the floor.. just pulled them out to see what it was gonna look like with the mustang II drop suspension in it. i plan on going at least this low in the front and back and maybe a little lower in front.

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

57sailplane, could you provide me a better shot of the completed radio area? I'm thinking about filling it in as well and wondering what this looks like.

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

hey brad

here are some pictures yet it is still not complete. it needs a little filler on the edge above the heater controls. and here are som pictures of my latest design work. i am step notching useing modified parts from a differant frame. you quys will be happy to note that these came off a frontal damaged truck what was left of her. just cab and frame. oh ya what do you think of my tranny cooler i picked up for 10 dollars at the same yard. this thing should keep my tranny cool its huge..

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

rest of the pictures

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

Thanks for the pics. I may do something similar down the road.

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

That's going to be a seriously bad truck. Keep us posted!

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

It droped.
I know not very far along but i did get somthing done this weekend. the front is coming down farther as soon as i get some mustang II a-frames.. i am going to build my own front cross member. this thing is going to be a coil over truck not baged so it will ride perty low for springs. you guys have any ideas on how close i can run the frame to the rear axcel with 150# springs.

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

Dude!!! Haven't you heard? Filling the radio hole will make your truck worthless!!! At least that's what some say about cutting it to put a cd player in. :crazy:

You better just donate that truck to me and I'll take care of it for you so you don't have to live with the shame anymore! :gi:

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

this thing is gonna rock the beef when its done.

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

We as men never get tired of build threads. Keep the pics coming and it looks great.

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

nice progress...keep it up

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

well here is my latest progress. relocation of panard bar. i think the coilovers will fit now. :cool:

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

the rest

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

my only concern is the weight i keep adding to make it work right. mayby someday a nice light weight 4link but for now were doin it cheep.

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

well,

i made a little progress, feels like i am going backwards.. :no: anyways heres some pictures of my mustang II install and my knew 9 inch its got strange axels and gears and a nodular 3rd member..

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

more pics last 2 show 0 degrees. i was only 1 degree off with my first cut in. its usally more dificult for me to get things right

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

It's been awhile since you updated so I had not seen your build yet, until now.

May I say, we need more regular updates on this one for sure. :metal:

Very Very Nice Work. I like it alot.

I do know how things are though, I have not even started a build thread yet so I have no room to talk :lol:

RJ22...:)

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

Good to see an update!

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

got the Heidts II done well almost. think I'm going to add a bolt in frame reinforcement.. here some pictures. waiting on washers and nuts for the hubs. yes more progress.:metal:

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

well i have made some progress..

suspension is pretty much done.. the only thing i might add is the brakets to adjust the drag arms up and down in the at the front of them. colom is in and fully functional. the ride height can be adjusted up and down all the way around. this is probably lower than what i will be driving on the strip or street. anyways here are pics..

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

here some more pics

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

Awesome project. I wish I had a place to do something like that with mine. It's nice to see that you've basically built everything you can instead of buying it. Keep it up.

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

Man, that is one cool build you have going on.

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
 

Mate you are extremly talented and should be proud of your efforts so far...keep us posted. And nice vans by the way.

Re: Slow And Low So Goes The Tempo!!!
