Re: my sfbd 86cdime build

Umm, I think you need an alignment.
Looks like a fun project. And a nice shop. Other than the obvious frame altering and suspension, what are your plans? And what wheels are those? I like them. Looks like you have another nice looking square in the background too.

Oh and to the board!

Talking Re: my sfbd 86cdime build

Plans for the 86 it's getting an tt lt1.... It's getting converted to right hand drive.... I'm doing a suicide hood ummm...it has 22s but getting 24s all the way around... Interior wise I have plans to do a 1959 impala dash. The front clip is gonna be a 90 gmc suburban clip............the truck in the background is an 87 gmc w/350 sb 4bolt main comp cam, headers, vortec heads. The interior is all new black and grey tweed. I have tons of pics of both trucks just don't have access to computer all the time. I'll def get more pics on when I get the chance. Good to be a part of a forum that shares the Same ideas and lifestyle!!!!

Re: my sfbd 86cdime build

Well, it looks to be well worth it. I really like the look of the interior in your 87. What do you plan to do on the 86 interior?

Re: my sfbd 86cdime build

Ya, that will look good. Done a couple dash swaps like that in the past, fun to do too. You just putting the left side on the right and vice versa for the right hand conversion? What are you doing with seats? What are those 22s I don't usually care for big chrome wheels, but I kinda like the look of those.

Re: my sfbd 86cdime build

Looks like a cool project man. Those are some sweet wheels.

I noticed you were in Norman. I'm just down the street in Noble. Welcome to the boards. You'll have to check out the Oklahoma section. There are several members from the Norman area on here.

Re: my sfbd 86cdime build

The new ones have potential to be pretty cool on there. You gonna buy the inserts? They would look good color matched IMO. Is everything set up to lay out on 24s? Why don't you like the 22s?
Dang John. I wondered how long it would take you guys to chime in.
