Louisiana Classic Truck Club

I asked Wynne if he minded me posting this over here. I am not
a LA boy but I visit quite a bit and have made some friends here.

I'm also ditching the 72 clip and going with a 68 nose

Sounds cool, Luv !! Soooo.... Have you decided on wheels yet ? What do you plan on doing with GQ's chassis once you take the body off?

I kinda figured that's what you had planned for that frame. It will be nice, that's for sure. What color are you going with?

Wheels and Tires are picked out, just need funds to order them, going with 20/22's

Wynne - She is gonna be BLACK w/ a secret twist to it (More on that later on)

I'm watching Craig. You know you can go with a 6" drop spring for the rear with the blocks and bolt-in c-notch. That's what is in the stepside right now, and it rides good. You're going to need all the drop you can get with those HUGE wheels you have planned for it.

Was unsure that 6" would work, thanks for the tip

More NEW parts added from a guy we promote

Looks interesting LUV. Too bad you don't want to give up Merlot for a Dodge

Nope, sorry, just need cash, it is 4 sale though

I see there's no progress on it over here either

Traded for and Purchased a few more parts at the
Board Meet this past weekend. Also sold my front
clip and have 2/3 of the 68 clip to go back on it. I
have pay'd a lil to the trans builder for parts that
he will need, & I almost have my frame stripped.

Cool! I can't wait to get up there in Nov. and be part of the madness:D

More parts purchased

Looks like you've got it going your way! That thing sure is gonna be nice when you're done.
