Rick

What an awesome project. I can't wait to see it back on the ground.

What are your plans for the suspension ?

Thanks! Talk about an awesome truck, are you still the proud owner/builder and now driving it all over town? Bet you it's a blast to drive! What do or did you like best, building or driving it or both? I have 2 1/2 years building the Chevelle and probably won't be done until next spring.

I'm installing a complete DSE Speed Kit 3. Can't wait to see how it handles and drives.

Thanks for the compliments on the Truck. There were a ton of people involved in the build of that beast. High Speed Welding, Comp Fab, Recovery Room Interios & most important was Kenny Davis Hot Rods.

I started the project in my garage like you and then hauled it to Comp Fab where every Thursday and Saturday I worked on it. Then when it came back home I worked on it again and they sent it to Kenny Davis Hot Rods. I can't say enough good things about Kenny, Kenny Sr and Travis they are the one's that actualy finished the truck. Kenny hauled it to Sema 2010 and it sold couldn't pass up the Money plus I want to start another project with a back seat because I now had 2 little girls that I love taking with me every where.

So I left Vegas in a 2010 SLP 575 Camaro and drove it to Chicago. It's the perfect car to take to local cruise nights with my girls.

I also started a 70 Camaro project that I have involved my kids and the neighbor kids in. I figure if i can get them into Cars and Mountain Biking it may keep them away from drugs and other bad things. The 70 has been a blast to work on and once again I have handed it off to Kenny and the guys at Kenny Davis Hot Rods. We were going to debut it at Sema this year but I had a little medical problem that I need to care of first. So the new plan it to debut it in March at the World of Wheel in Chicago.

okay sorry for the thread hi-jack on my reply.

Wow! Sounds like you have had some great experiences due to your hard work and are truly blessed! I have a girl and a boy (7 & 5) and can't wait to take them to the cruise-ins.

I have no intention of selling the Chevelle but I guess that's what they all say. Maybe someone will make a crazy offer and she will have to go?

Wish you the best with you and your project!
