Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....
I don't think this was meant to be a "no expense spared" build. This guy is a normal guy,... (like all of us),... with normal bills. This is just a budget build, (if there is such a thing), with ALOT of attention to detail. All work is being done by Jeff (hot trux), with the exception of the upholstery, in a small shop. Including all wiring, mechanical and paint / bodywork. I think the results are amazing. I guess I'm jealous too. I'll post more pics as I get them.

Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....
That's a nice build your buddy has going.
 Is he planning to share the specs for the stance, drop and wheel size for his 'new' setup'?

Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....
I'll let hot trux answer on the engine. The wheels are 20x8 and 20x9.5 Billet Specialties Vintec's. The air ride is all from Air Ride Technologies. Cool Ride kit up front and air over leaf in back.

Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....
I hitched a ride with lolife99 this weekend, and got to take a closer look at hot trux ride... that thing is going to be sweet!
Can't wait to see that thing flying down the highway.

Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....
The build has slowed a little. The core support is getting some extra attention. Once the front clip is done,... the wiring will begin. Also the seat and door panels are at the upholstery shop. Hot Trux or I will keep you posted.

Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....
I had to make a trip up to see hot trux,... so I snapped these pics tonight. The pics don't due the core support justice. There is a huge number of hours in this thing.

Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....

Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....
I believe they are Patriot "shorty" headers for the Chevelle application. You can PM hot trux or I can try to get some pictures later. His probably won't be done by June.
