Default Tyler's new 1.1 build

Tylers 66 chevy c-10 has been sold so he could fund a truck build with more of a sport look and feel. So far I think we have nailed it.
The truck started life as a 70 gmc but not much of that is left,it is pretty much a 67-68 chevy c-10 with a chopped top and laid back A-pillars.
We have a pretty good parts list already and a bunch more parts to have to buy.
Wilwood brakes front and rear.
20x8.5 with a 255/40 front
22x9.5 with a 285/40 rear
Porterbuilt full suspension/frame/x-member kit on the way.
We plan to run a Ls series engine with a automatic overdrive trans.

Anyway here are a couple of pics with the stock suspension,it will get about 6 inches closer to the ground with the new stuff.

I'm not a fan of the huge wheels.....but those look good on that.

If that's the stock suspension, that's sittin' low already.

Love seeing grease stains on the carpet and car parts on the table!

Great father/son project!
