    My dad got the front bodywork back on and the tires mounted. The front needs a spacer and maybe a taller tire than the 235/70 that we have now. The rear looks good, but the frame needs a notch to get the ride height we want.

    Ill get him to take good images of how it sits once the wheel spacers show up next week.

        There was a nice looking red 64 posted on craigslist this week. I really like the fender and bedside arches those have.

        Does anyone have a driver side LS truck manifold I they would be willing to part with?

                      Nice. Be sure to update your progress once you start work on it.

                        My dad put the truck on the ground and the jag coil springs did not compress to the height we had expected. I ordered a pair of the SS-5 bags and he installed those in the last couple days. I wanted to avoid air, but refuse to cut coils and lowering springs are not within the budget. I still feel like it needs a taller front tire. I should have some better updates after the weekend.

                            Finished up the notch in the rear, and made some changes to the front shocks as we need more travel out of them with the bags. The brake lines are also now complete, and we finally got the steering shaft back after three weeks at the machine shop. One of the crossmembers under the cab needs be changed to clear the driveshaft so that is next on the list. Still need to tuck the bumper a new inches, its just sitting there for the image.
