    When we did the exhaust, I notched the bed frame where the rear end shock is to allow for additional clearance due to how low the truck is

    Beautiful work as always my friend. Admittedly have shed a few tears in the retirement of your RC though.... I loved that truck.

    Nothing still got it, the family out grew it so I got a QC. Most of the parts are off my Rc.

    Love it. It is killing me that mine is not done yet. I can not wait to post all the pics of the work.

    Are you taking that bad boy to Carlisle PA this year?

    Did some test fitting, I'm not keeping them polished-its way to much work for me. No more black either time for a different color

    I got busy and swapped motors, transmissions, pedal assemblies, steering columns, engine/tranny wiring harnesses, and pcm's because I wanted the 6 speed in my QC and my other motor is already built.
