Nice! What size tires are you running on the blue truck? Would you mind giving me the measurements from the ground to the bottom of the running boards front and back? I really like the stance.

Thanks crash. The truck looks lower than that. Perfect stance with plenty of clearance.

I picked up my 55 last August. Got it road worthy, lowered it a few inches and swapped the wheels (twice).

My 1957 long bed, with the Camaro clip installed. Soon to be mounted on a shortened 1994 Dodge 4wd chassis as a modernized NAPCO style 4wd.

Thanks! It's moving along pretty well for all that needs to be done. I'd like to have it running before this winter sets in, even though it will still be needing to have the body work completed.
