I seen your truck at Slamology. Sweet build!!!!! I also like your interior. I have a long waaaaay to go on my build. getting ready to bag mine. cant decide if I want to body drop though!!. One question your front slams are they5" or 6"?hard to tell from pic. Thanks for your info

they are 6",space was tight tho,i want to switch it up to a custom strut/piston style setup,but i dunno if i will or not

[Tdatsun1971]

Thanks, I too have wondered about the stut type bags or air cyls. they are smaller around, but they dont get much lift. Only 4" or so. I have also thought about a custom loop set up above the upper control arms but this could be more challenging than its worth. thanks , troy

Nice!! Red & black always look good together.
Tdatsun- i too am thinking of running a setup like you described by running the bags above the upper arms.
Sorry for the hijack Impala.

dam i love those seats and door panels. they look awesome... im gonna have to find a set of those seats. how bad was it to mount those in there?
anyways truck is looking awesome! coming together real nice. one of my favorite 520's, ill admit it.

[impala_631]

[lownslow]

I ifnnally yanked the bed off to finish off the inside of the bed, I got the rest of the metal on and everything is fully weled,I still need to knock a few welds down then its ready for filler and sanding,i m tring to get it to the world of wheels indy in 2 weeks,since I missed last years, but it is going to be cutting it close for shure

Well I got a lot done,still have a lot to do,but the shows movein date is in 3 days and I never recived the comfermtion letter,so I'm going to just take my time instead of a rush jobbie,but if I were to get a last minute letter I might just take it with no bed,or maybe just take the impala since its move in ready,either way I'm takeing my time on the finish work to the inner bed,keep a eye out for some updates in a couple weeks

[impala_631]

Okok I know I said I wasn't takeing it.... wrong,here it is!!

[Pacific coast Datsun]

Looks right at home Will the bed floor also be sheet metal'd over ? Clean work...
