Re: Project: Shiro

Stinks to hear, but understand. I'm spending way more, and taking way longer, than I ever expected when I purchased my first truck.

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.

Re: Project: Shiro

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

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

Re: Project: Shiro

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.

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.
