Going to be lowered Monday
Hey guys, been on here for awhile and thought I'd finally show you a picture of the 65. It's from Boone NC had it shipped here to MI there is no rust anywhere and the interior is like new. It's a six/three on the tree and runs and drives great with 80013 actual miles. It's headed to a friend's shop Monday to be lowered. I'll try to post more pics later.

Re: Going to be lowered Monday
Thanks Guy's!!!! I'm really excited with it and the wife even likes it!!!! She hated my other truck. One thing I need, is to put seatbelts in it, other than that she's pretty much ready to go!!

Re: Going to be lowered Monday
Yeah, it will stay rust free as it's a toy to be driven on nice days only. I'm doing a 4.5 / 4 inch drop. Heres a couple of shots of the inside. It's actually in the shop now for the slam.

Re: Going to be lowered Monday
OK got the truck back from my buddy's shop last Thursday.... the drop turned out great!!!! 4" rear 4.5" front. It does have attitude now. It is going back to his shop tomorrow to have the top painted white and the clearcoat is peeling real bad, I think we will sand it down and prime some of it. I will post pictures soon!!

Re: Going to be lowered Monday
Hey Slow Build, The pictures of the truck in the garage are most recent. My buddy took them last night. The p.o. had put new springs all around and it sat really high. We brought it down 4.5 in the front and 4 in the rear, sanded the peeling clearcoat off and painted the top white.
