Re: stance of my 58

Thanks! I love it! Took a while to get it to sit exactly how I wanted it to look. Sometimes these trucks look a little "off" when sitting low. It can look like the front wheel is shoved into the firewall, because of the angles of the wheel arch in the front fender. My trucks wheel base was extended to 115", from the 114" factory wheelbase, because of this. It was originally a long bed, so when doing my Camaro IFS swap and frame shortening, i took that into account. Can't wait to see your truck at its final ride height! I do love those fleetside's! I'm after a nice fleetside bed myself!
