Re: Sean's '69 lower and under bed fuel tank
Looks great! I just did similar upgrades on my 69 step. Mines parked for now because the 15" wheels rub on the front drop spindles.

Re: Sean's '69 lower and under bed fuel tank
I used performance online 2.5 drop spindles. The wheels are off a 76 C10. i drove it around the block and sheared the weights on the back of the wheel clean off! instead of grinding down the spindle im just gonna go with a bigger wheel.
