Lance, she has come a long way, buddy. You have done an awesome job on her.
Paint scheme is great and never thought I'd say it but those LTD covers look good on it.
Now it is time for you to enjoy driving it since you have spent so much effort to get her looking so good. TR

Are we talking roof lines or body lines. If I can find some 14in wheels for mine I might get a little lower than you. I think our roof height is about the same, I knew I should have cut out 6 in instead of 4 in out,LOL. As soon as mine is moving under its own power we need to park them side by side..............Kid

Nah, Rick has been kidding me that we should have left the nose down two more inches like Bitlittles truck,

I am just yanking the chain back to get his butt moving and prove that he is right ! hahahahah

I am moving :D just real slow dang near had a heat stroke yesterday installing AC units . I did move several loads of stuff to the basement and have found a good chunk of my uni :D. I goofed off sunday and spent a good chunk of the day polishing out some eagle alloy 8 hole wheels I grabbed off of craigslist . That about whooped me as well granted I sanded them out starting with 220 grit wet paper and ending with 2000 grit wet before hitting them with the polish . Bad part is they are all 15X8 with a 3.25 backspace and I think I am gonna have to find or order a pair of 15X7's with a 4" backspace for the front ( so I can turn my front wheeels ;) ).


That full side shot infront of the water does look good and you do have a little rake :D.

That looks awesome! The color combo is great but I agree... the need for a red pinstripe will set it off.

Well that did help the Blues brothers anyways :D. I'm not cheating but I can plug your tires into Summit and see how tall they are :D. I am planning 225/50-15's on the front and 295/50-15's on the back of mine :D.
