    i'm just curious, where does the one bag go? under the X of the X frame? it lays out real nice for only having one bag. what kind of pressure does it take to lift it with only one bag? looks good man, but sheeit, clue us in, we've been wasting all that money buying FOUR airbags and your shop figures out how to do it with one, damn!

    If it had narrow whites, you could be mayor of Bellflower. The car's to new for wide whites.

    IMO ;-p

    I've seen tons of prestine restored '61 Impala's with ww's. I don't care, the ww's ad to the shock value of the car.

    I am seriously thinking about a set of the Cragar Radar repops they have in an 18" amd 20", with the new Diamondback thin whites or redlines.......

    Blvd. cars were always at the cutting edge. By the time Astro Supremes were in wide whites were for pimpmobiles.

    But the stance, the pipes and the color absolutely NAILS it.
