Well after the gtg a @ ABC I couldn't leave w/o a CR-01! Having driven one at ECC I couldn't wait to own one

First thing I did was black-it-out, chasis and wheels.

Now I just gotta decide which body to run & what to do with the shocks..... To cantilever or not to cantilever :thnk:

I still have to install the tranny and driveshafts then I can start beating on it!

dude, i say f'-itand ditch the cants.... just build the shocks normal and follow the K.I.S.S. philosophy....

my vote for a body is a either a C-10 or a blazer..... but then again, i am biased to GM products.....

I've run mine both with the canti and w/o. I have put it back to the canti set up. I just think it looks better that way and it still crawls well.

Thanks. The chassis isn't painted it's powder coated "black fine texture"
