    Next steps will be to lower it front and rear, then put on wide whites.
    Original owner left detailed notes on how he lowered the rear, so planning to do it the same way. (axle on top of springs with rubber bumper/stop removed from the frame for clearance)

    Here are a couple close-up pics I took recently of the phone with pinstripes by the Greek. Thought some folks would get a kick out of it... Stripes are still perfect.

    Also, another bit of trivia... After reading notes from the original owner, I found out that the truck was called the "Mystere" (pronounced- Miss-Tear)

    Drove the truck to work yesterday, then on to a local club event last night and it was running GREAT! That little 239 Y-block was sounding so good out on the road. Alot of fun to drive it and then to have folks remember seeing the truck when it was being shown back in it's time... A good day for me ... thanks to Joseph Botti who kept his pride and joy in his posession for more than 55 years.
