The rest of the set-up is also top quality. The pumps, ank, ines, ires, nd computer are all safely hidden from view with easy access. I can raise this up to stock height with a push of a button and it would appear stock...you don't have to ride low.
The entire kit was ordered from BC Fabrication (BCFab.com) as their Level 4 kit. I was going to add the link, ut eBay doesn't allow that.
Wheels:

Forgestar F14 20x10/20x8.5
This is a custom built wheel, esigned for this truck. It's hubcentric and lightweight.
Suspension:
CPP Front & Rear Sway
CPP 2.5" drop spindles
CPP 2" drop blocks (rear)
CPP rear shock angle brackets (new shocks)
Stoptech drilled/slotted rotors & pads
The truck drives, hifts, ides, tops and handles really well. No vibrations, ulls, r other awkwardness.
Body:
This was a straight body to begin with, ust had some rust (cab corners, ockers). I welded in new sheetmetal and filled (welded) all trim holes. It was painted with Hot Rod Flatz single stage urethane. It's a very low-maintenance upkeep. No waxing or polishing!
All work was done to this truck last fall. I purchased it from a close friend who owned it since the early '90's. He's a mechanic with his own shop, nd maintained the truck very well. I wanted to maintain its usefulness as a truck, o I left the box intact and made a point to make it drive well, ide well and be reliable. I've daily drove this most of the summer, everal distance trips included, ithout issue.
Interior:
The interior was stripped and sprayed to match the exterior. The seat and carpet were in ok shape, o they were re-used. The seat has a crack in the vinyl (shown) where it flexes, ut has no other tears or rips. New door panels and dash were installed. It doesn't have a radio, ecause I didn't like any of my options well enough to put one in. I haven't missed it, o it's stayed that way. I made a vinyl panel to cover the opening. The interior (floor/doors) are layered in Dynamat/Fatmat insulation. All the gauges work properly.

Issues:
The engine does leak some oil from the rear main seal. It also burns a small amount on warm start-up from the valve seals. The high-idle on the Quadrajet stopped working when I put the intake on, nd it developed a stumble on WOT. Otherwise, verything works as it should. It is an older truck, hough, nd not every part is restored. There are signs of age in misc trim...dings/scuffs/etc. This makes a great driver that gets a lot of compliments, ut I don't see it as a show truck.
No Trades.
