Love the wedding pics! So glad you were able to have the truck be a part of the celebration. Great looking family as well.

Re: Mesquite 1966 C10 - LS3 W/Air Ride

Got challenged by a late 90's Camaro last night, it had a big cam and sounded healthy. But he called me out when I was in mid RPM in 2nd gear which is perfect for me. It was over in about 100 ft. +1 66 Truck!!!

Re: Mesquite 1966 C10 - LS3 W/Air Ride

It's the simple things sometimes. We live 10 miles outside of Lubbock, Texas and our phone coop had dsl service that was less than 1 meg and most of the time about 380k, or basically dialup.

The coop just finished bringing Fiber to our little part of the world, now we have cable and 20mb download and 5mb upload. I really could have used this while loading up all those photos.

Re: Mesquite 1966 C10 - LS3 W/Air Ride

Just spent the last 2hours reading through this build... All I have to say is WOW!

Your attention to detail is top notch and what a tribute to your father. Looks like the wedding was just one of many future memories to be made with the old pick'em up truck!

Thanks for sharing!

Re: Mesquite 1966 C10 - LS3 W/Air Ride

What are you guys using to keep gas from coming out of vent hose? Is there a one way vent out there, if there is I can't find it. I have a canister but cant find a place above the tank to mount it, argh!
