Re: my patinia'd 69

Thanks a lot guys I was wondering how it would work on stock arms so I bought my own camber caster gauge and didn't even need it the alignment was perfect I hope it is still good after new uppers and drop spindles

Sweet long bed! If you ever decide to get rid of the inline 6 I'd be willing to take it off your hands.
