Finally got the body back on the frame, still having fitment issues but eventually Ill get things ironed out. Once you stray from stock youre :banghead]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/kalthoff1/PHOT0052.jpg[/img]









Long ways to go, needs to be lowered more..Hoping to stuff a 295/50/15 under there.

NICE!!! Looks great. Final color going to be white?

It's looking good, Ron! You've been making some great progress on this as of late. I love El Caminos, that thing is going to be too cool.

Thanks...

Final color is 06 Vette white, interior coca cola red. Originally white on red (bucket seats), just updated the colors. I wanted black with blue pearl but noone would paint it black. Besides, Im not a diligent waxer and having something stealthy and low maintenance is more up my alley.

Ill apply permanenet undercoating via drag radials.
