Just plain awesome... I'm in awe.

That interior is looking absolutely amazing, I can't wait to see how it turns out...You, sir, are one skilled dude. How do you have time to do all this and the money to keep it going?

Hey Kenny, if you have time, could you throw together a new thread that shows your air system?

Have pics of the bags, lines, tank, valves, compressor, switches, etc... Give us some details like what valves your running and your opinion on them. You know, stuff like that. We need a good thread like that.

Oh, and the video links, too. This thread is just too big to find this info.

Thanks

That's bad *** work. I can tell this isn't your first big build. I'm just learning.

Hey, I copied and pasted all your current stereo and dash pics into the thread about big back seat systems to save you the trouble. Hope you dont mind. The folks love it. Check it out.

A '55 Chevy?
What are you doing to make it hardcore?

BTW, I got my rear air bags installed. I cut out some plates for the top of the Firestone 9000 sleeve bags to mount to and then cut out the bump in the spring pocket. This puts the bag about 1.25" higher. Now I need to make some custom adjustable bumpstops.
