LOL

The orange truck was built by a new shop... you can find them on Facebook under The Restomod Store. Super clean truck, and of course, running all our stuff.

I am getting ready to put a truck together for myself, but need to get a few other irons out of my fire before I can feel good about spending time on my own project.

The first one will be a 70 C10 that I am going to put together and drive until it sells... which means I probably won't even get to enjoy it much.... but it's all for a good cause.... to fund my 57 pickup I have had since high school.

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember

I for one, hate my DropMember! It just keeps costing me money. First it was the front, the it was the rear, then I had to have an AccuAir management system and then the body drop. Buying a DM is an addiction but oh so worth it.

I would agree. It started with 1 dropmember and then goes all haywire from there. Then when you think you have the addiction under control you find another good deal and do it all over!!!

Yeah! A total love/hate relationship.


What suspension is under your yellow truck? I can't remember.

It has Bill Mitchell arms and a pancaked crossmember. Not sure if the crossmember Is Bill Mitchell or not. Plans are after I finish my 72 and my wife's it needs a porterbuilt makeover.

The older 50's trucks are really starting to grow on me! I love that red GMC you posted pics of... Do you have any pics of your 57 you could share with us in its current state?

I will post some pics of it when I get a chance. Unfortunately, there isn't a whole lot left as I robbed some of the sheetmetal for a 55 we built about 10 years ago... I have been collecting replacement parts.

Ditto, should be receiving my complete front dropmember kit very soon. Just pulled the trigger on the mild step (bolt-in) rear kit yesterday.
