Re: 72 Cheyenne Build Thread

The color is 97-00 Corvette Bright Blue Met. or I've heard it called Nassua Blue. I had actually started painting the thing Silver at first (I love a nice clean Silver) and then decided I wanted a color a little more lively. I love the color out in the sun.

....4WD....that's the next mod...incorporate a complete Lamborghini Murcielago all wheel drive drivetrain under the truck with the 580 hp V12 in the bed!!!....guaranteed to be the only one on the block!!

I love the stance of some of the air suspension trucks on this forum, but will stick with the static drop for now. With everthing back on it will still go down some more and I plan on dropping the rear a little more as well. I want the tires (17's or 18's) to just be inside the upper fender lip.

....besides, if I went with an air suspension, I'd have to have all the trick stuff....computer controller...auto leveling system...etc...

That's my problem...champagne taste on a BEER BUDGET!!!

Thanks again to all for the compliments...they mean alot!
