Just curious...why not look at the PorterBuilt front k-member? They do a coilover setup that bolts right in with R&P, proper LS mounts etc?

Liking a two tone paint scheme. I would really like suggestions on colors.

Thanks for following and it should turn out pretty amazing

Score on the truck. As to color suggestions, let me throw one suggestion your way. Tan bottom with white top. Does not show the dust from our area at all. I have a black Chevelle and it is impossible to keep clean, shows every spec of dust. My Homer 68 build is just the opposite. Take a look.

Well the truck I really like has that same color combo or I would be doing that. I love the tan and white!! I'll post a pic, I'm sure everybody has seen it before.

DSE also makes a frame graft with straight rails so you don't have to cut up a complete F-body sub.

That one is beautiful too. Don't lose focus on the crewcab though.

Delivered it to Phoenix and have not see or heard anything since. It seems to have vanished. The new owner has not been active on the forum in over a year.
