Kansas T

I caught a skunk in my live trap last night.  Who wants to come help relocate it?

I like to dream about going crazy on this truck but it seems I always pull back. So I'm scrapping the flame idea. I keep going back to a simple three box bead roll design for each wheel well.

 

 

 

Sometimes less is more.  There is so much amazing craftsmanship and detail in your build, that I don't think you need an over the top set of fenders.  

Yes, 2.5” shocks.  14” will be too long.  Thanks

Still looking for spring.

I just paid $1700 in yearly vehicle registration fees for 5 vehicles in Kansas.

Wow!  That’s impressive.

In search of a pair of 3.0 x 12 x 250 springs or something with a similar rate.

Should have lifted.  He looked like a no prep driver.

I have a custom frame under my 52 Chevy truck and it’s 1/8” 2x6 box tubing between the wheels.  2x4 behind the rear wheels and in front of the front wheels.

As far as quality are you saying the one piece or two piece wheel from American Racing. I would be looking at the two piece wheels. 

Mine are two piece.

I also like the American Racing salt flat wheels. These are 17s. I would do 18s. Much more affordable as well. Talking $13k+ for the HL3 Forgelines with with wheels, tires, and adapters. Still might end up going this route. 

I love the look of the salt flats.  I have a set of them on my ‘52 Chevy pickup, but I’m not impressed with American Racings quality.  They enclosed a quality control sheet with the wheels to show the runout measurements, but it was not at all accurate.

I think the HL3 would look great on that car.

I work for a GM dealer in the middle of Kansas and we're at $125/hr.
