    Funny how times change. Forty years ago, the stance on my truck would have been considered perfect (by me anyway). And now everyone is telling me to drop the ass 3”.

    Really, really like your car. Can you tell me what name / number of green you used?

    I certainly like my pile of junk better after lowering it and adding the wheels and tires I wanted.

  17. How long have you owned this car? I remember seeing it at Pleasanton probably 25 years ago. I always liked the detail on the frame rail.
     
  18. It looks good....leave it alone! Trucks need a bit of a rake!

    Hello, I put the car on the road in 1996 and did drive it to Pleasanton a few times. Glad you like it!!

  20. Not my car not my picture, but I think they nailed the wheels and stance. Less is more, exhaust and frame help. 39A01A0E-9CCF-4D32-A316-592DE719C24B.jpeg

    Although still in “break in” mode after 2600 plus miles - it's a long story ……
