My 85 chevy c10 build

[CuRtdOgG]

I picked this truck up back in august 10. I got it running and drove it for about a month. Then it sat at my friends house for 3 months waiting for some body work but we never got.around to it. Now i have cracked down and im ready to start the fun stuff. Truck has a 350 with a small cam. The interior is pretty bad it will need total redoing. The guy who had it before me took the leafe springs off so there was one coming from each way not giving kuch axle clearance at all. Then the front was a little higher.so I cut a.spring off. Bad choice. This made the truck look a little more level but made for an even worse ride. Also there was a five gallon plastic fuel tank in the bed with no tank under the truck. so i bought a new 16 gallon and a sending unit and got that hooked up. also the long tube headers were hitting everytime i hit a bump. So i replaced them with a pair of block huggers. Now to fix the suspension I have on the way somewhere in a ups truck....a DjM 5/5 drop kit. and i ordered some nitro 2 drop shocks from stylintrucks.com which csme in last friday. Also i broke my driver window because the door was sprung. I had to slam it and the inside was rotted out and rusted. i picked up a pair of electric doors and a bed on craigslist for 300. Mthe original bed had two huge dents, so im happy with the fix. So I got the doors on. anyone use thisbdrop kit.?? Ill be posting pics as i go. Thanks for looking
