Baggin' a 71' Sub????????

Anybody have any pics of any 67-72 Subs/Panels that have been bagged? I am lookin' for pics of the setups themselves, not the outside of the truck.

Thanks!
Joe

Yea... I'm not too familiar with these monsters yet and wasn't sure if there is anything Sub' specific I had to watch out for... I don't want to come through the floor either.

Basically, this is how I want it to sit when done....

to get it that low you will have to notch the floor for the pumpkin to come up. You can get them pretty low with out doing much. Bags and drop spindles and 2 inch blocks. And you are sitting pretty good.

Maybe I will look into cutting the floor. I may get rid of the termite buffet and replace it with some 16 ga. If I do that then I can raise the floor up a little(wheel wells too).

He must have bought that F150 from Jeff down near Houston. I knew it was for sale but didn't realize he had sold it.

My sub

Yea that is my orange sub and I am Jeff from Houston area that owned and built the black suede F150 as well. I sold the F-150 right before Christmas.

The sub chassis is the same as a long bed truck of this year model. And for all that are woundering the sub body is un-restored. I resently in the past few weeks recovered the seats with black and white hounds tooth, put a new 350 crate motor and 700R4 with new flowmaster exhaust tucked up in the frame all the way out the back. The only thing I am waiting on right now is the new Boyd Magneto's I ordered which should be in this week hopefully. I will post more pics once they arrive.

Jeff

Knew that neighborhood looked familiar.

Mike with the flat and purple flamed and BD 99+ Silvy that lives around the corner from you was supposed to roll me by your crib last time I was there to check it out before you sold it.

Hi Jeff,
Did you cut the floor in the back to get it down or will it lay like that w/o cutting.

Did you use the AirLift kit or how is the rear set up???

I want to set mine up similar to how yours is. I don't need or want it to lay out completely, I've got my 91 for that.....

Any help would be great!

Thanks! Joe

BTW - The Hot Rod Lincoln kicked A$$!!!!!!!

Cut Floor? Yes

Bagged 91,

Yes the floor of the sub is cut in the year to allow the rear end pumpkin to come a little higher with a c-notch and a 2 inch block. The air ride sytem is air ride technologies. I just got my early classics panhard bar in yesterday and will put it on this weekend. It is needed to keep the rear end side to side movement to minimum. THe wheels clear now, but my new wheels are 20 x 10's and the side to side movement would be a problem with those, plus it is just wrong to have that much movement.

Thanks the complements. Any help you may need please feel free to ask,
