Full droop in front( what it'll look like if it caught air at Surf-n-turf, which it will hopefully in 2018)with front fenders trimmed. Extending rocker slider out to almost opening of wheel well.

Hey, there could of been a naked Budweiser behind the wagon and I wouldn't of seen it. She's going to be awesome to see in paint.

Rear sitting on its own weight. Ride height should be just a little lower with weight of fuel, roof rack and rear bumper/spare tire. It's adjustable if needed...
What's a naked Budweiser??

 

[scrapdaddy]

I'm not real sure, but I wouldn't of seen it.

Steering works well. Need to get motor back in and put coils in and roll it!!

[landcruisnman]

Not much, but gas pedal bracket done. Used factory mounting holes.

Anyone else putting a "Drive By Wire" pedal for a GM motor in their 55? This works pretty well and we could make a few more??

 

[scrapdaddy]

I'm running one, but cut down the pedal arm so my leg had some more room to stretch out. The adapter looks nice. I love making stuff like that.

Mine is drive by wire but it's from a 2005 Tundra. I'll probably talk to Jonny about cutting some plates with the right bolt pattern for mine when I get to that point.

Brake pedal needed to be bigger (no clutch) and sometimes I use my left foot..

Sitting on its own weight on all fours. First time in years. It's a roller finally. Motor and trans will bring it down.
