Theres also a San Diego Post, but I dont think the guys out there keep it up.
Your idea of just using the parts is a good way to go instead of trying to drop your truck on the 73 frame.

Back on the back burner.

Just to let everyone know, a group of friends are meeting up to grab a sandwich at Rocco's. Everyone is welcomed to stop and say hi.
We are working on getting together regularly at different places locally here in Long Beach.
Please feel free to stop by and grab a sandwich. One of the partners has a hot rod and if I can get a head count he will tape off a section of the parking lot for us. I know John Oro will get preferred parking with his sweet truck.

Should be a small friendly gathering though.

Re: SoCal checkin' in

Hey gang,
just wanted to thank all of you that showed up. It was cool meeting some new bro's and hanging out.
I hope you all had a good time and enjoyed the food.
I will be working with Steve from Rocco's as possibly having this as a monthly event and a cool place for all the local truck guys and hot rodders to hang out.
Hopefully see you all again real soon,
huero.

Thanks!! I guess im the only one that does not like it or always find the flaws. LOL
You know the owner is the worst critic. LOL

Also here is the brake line sites. www.finelinesinc.com and www.inlinetube.com
I used fine lines but others used inline, so it becomes a choice of what you want.
