Tony, Tracey you guys go to the back of the class and take your seat.
Good answers. That leaves me with two more pieces to add. What would be the best two pieces to compliment what I have posted so far?

Bob@ProAuto · 05-11-2009, 02:56 PM

I'm going to "assume" the sway bar is for the front so my guess is....
Front kit with StrongArms and the Air Management system.

Tony@AirRideTech · 05-11-2009, 01:12 PM

I know .......

**lolife99** · 05-11-2009, 04:02 PM

strong arms from ART.

Tony@AirRideTech · 05-11-2009, 05:00 PM

Asia Devinyl in the passenger seat with me behind the steering wheel ?

**N2TRUX** · 05-12-2009, 10:24 AM

Ok, so some of you have been very intuitive. The last piece of the puzzle are the ART Strong arms. Combine these items with an air management system, and you have the latest and greatest that Air Ride Technologies has to offer for our trucks.

So by now maybe your wondering what the heck this has to do with anything. Or maybe your just thinking "get to the point already". In case you didn't read the stickie entitled " Air Ride Tech- Company catalog-Ad contest-" my 77 Cheyenne was chosen from a field of awesome trucks to be used in an Air Ride Technologies Catalog.

I was really excited that my old heap still had the looks to be selected for this honor. In discussing this with Tony from ART he asked if I would be interested in doing a few updates. Of course he had my attention, so I eagerly listened to his plan. Tony was able to offer me a complete ART package for my truck. In return he requested an online article documenting the installation.

As you can imagine I pondered this for about a nano second before eagerly accepting the offer. In the meantime, I had a conversation with my old buddy Keith (n2billet) and told him the plan. We discussed how it would be best to shoot pictures with the bed off, and he formulated plan.

He and our mutual friend Roger (formerly with Stoked Out) would do the build. We hope to have a professional freelance photographer shoot the build, and get the truck magazines involved. Those details are still being worked out.

I'll start a new thread as the project gets underway. I just wanted to give you guys a heads up, and take an opportunity to thank Tony and all the great guys from Air Ride Technology....

smashingchuck · 05-12-2009, 10:29 AM

Lucky duck.

bagged74 · 05-12-2009, 10:32 AM

Congrats buddy. well deserved

fixit-p · 05-12-2009, 11:05 AM

Congratulations...I was in the ball park but it turns out it was your truck that was missing from the pic (lucky)...cant wait to see the build.

72BlckButy · 05-12-2009, 02:15 PM

Unbelievable.... what a great opportunity!

Can't wait to see the install and see how that thing looks with their new kit.

Congrats!

VA72C10 · 05-12-2009, 04:22 PM

Wow, congrats...it's a well deserved benefit to upgrade that already sweet truck.

AceX · 05-13-2009, 04:17 AM

I knew it! Lucky bastard!

Actually, it couldn't have gone to a more deserving person. Does this mean that you and the truck will be @ SEMA this year...?

crawdadfox · 05-13-2009, 07:11 AM

Yeah but Tonys going to photo shop your truck to a "nice" shade of pink for the catalog!!

Congrats...you should buy some lotto tickets while your on a roll!!

Thanks.... I think..

Any use of my truck for promotional purposes beyond what has been discussed is pure speculation. Certainly I am open to discuss any offers that ART might consider beneficial.

Tony@AirRideTech · 05-13-2009, 10:13 AM

ok ok ok ... maybe not Asia... how bout Ewa Sonnet in the passenger seat and me behind the steering wheel.... is that better for ya?
