thanks guy

As for paint, the chevy is getting painted the same sceme as my Ed Roth beach cruiser.

And the bronco will NOT be red! I'm not a big red fan as it is and theres too many red broncos around. So I'm thinking metallic tangerine with a copper chassis...but thats not final yet.

The plutos I got the other day that where the wrong offset might have a home yet. I narrowed them up and threw some moabs on them. I think they look alright.

I also got the rear shocks mounted and travel seams to be good.

MH, that looks real good. When you get done with all those projects, I sure would like to see a family photo.

Whats that behind the truck. Looks like a 1928-31 model a sedan (favorite car). Awsome truck, but im a little dissapointed that it didnt have a rat fink on it being that its and ed roth style paint job.
