Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69

That truck has some serious attitude with the stance/red primer/black steelies setup.

Badass, I'm hopin 2 have my 66 there as well... Proly just cruise it round, but looks gorgeous the way u've got yours set up and I love the details on the frame like the little squares over the welds, amazing details.

Lowering the motor mounts, is it 1 inch extra that I get by doing this, and how was it with the rest of the truck, was it a pain to get it all to line up after lowering them 1 inch and do the rockers lay out after the 1 inch adjustment?

Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69

Looks Sweet!!!!! I would love to see a pic of the bed so i can prepare myself on how much bed i will have leftwhen i get done. What company did you go with for the fleetside bed? Where the panels straight? Anyways looks great and check my progress out. I am waiting on a bunch of parts to get it a rollin chassis and finish the rear suspension. Talk to you later!
