Just wanted to see what it would look like with the new 29" wheel/tire setup.
This is as low as it will go with the factory trailing arms and no c notch.
Planning on running the PB stage 2 deluxe rear, so I'm sure it will do down another few inches.
also, the motor is pretty much ready to go in.

Parts are piling up, but no PB setup yet. 4-6 week build time apparently :/. I probably should have just made all the pieces myself. Oh well, already paid for.
CPP Disc brake setup
ECE LS motor mounts - these things are heavy duty.

Just got shipping notification on suspension parts! Hurray!
Anyway, both sides of the cab look like this at the moment. About to start installing nearly $500 in patch panels (super inexpensive compared to many classic cars).

So my measurements were quite off this morning. Had to add a few small patch pieces. Driver side is mostly in. Tomorrow I'll finish up the footwell while I wait for the lower A pillar patch from LMC.
So are you putting the C60 grill in it? Does it fit without many mods? Got any pics?

You have to find a c60 grill, then swap buckets, then drill out all the rivets and weld in new mounting plates to move the "Chevrolet" emblem inside the grill. Probably a lot more work than most want to do, but yes, looks a thousand times better than the factory 64-66 c10 grill
