Cool project. It's a nice change from rust repair. This time it's a true rust free vehicle.

Is this going to be air bagged? or just lowered?

I know a company that was looking for one of these to put in their booth at SEMA this year....

We are using the new lowering spindle and shock kit from McGaughys which offers a 4/6 drop or a 5/7 drop. The rear is an axle flip kit with shock and leafspring mounts.

Yes!...lots!
Apologies in advance if the updates jump around a little, we have 4/5 guys working on this at the same time so there is lots happening all at once!

Since we cut a giant hole in the bedside, we thought it only fitting that we cover it up again...but make it wider!

With the upper shape dialed in, we bring the lower out to meet the original factory shapes

We're not going for 'subtle' with this one...:lol:

We also drastically lightened the stock hood...

...in order to make the louvered openings in the concept.
