Went to a car show, Had a good time.



Won First place.

So how many cars in the show? 3? JK of course. Actually I'm jealous. I've shown my truck a few times, never won anything... Car shows are fun though.

I thought about buying your truck 10 times. If it was Red/Red I would have said screw it and skipped asking permission from the wife.

You would have had to change your screen name

Finally after 18 months of abuse from Quickstop I bought some new wheels.

They were indeed an impulse buy however the purchase was hugely influenced by the wheels on Mrweelr's truck so thank you for the inspiration and motivation (from Mark) to change out the old AR 3 spokes..

Maybe a little overkill but as soon as the rear rim was fitted I was sold.

Rears are 9.5" wide with 295/30/19 fronts 8.5" with 235/35/19

Before and aftershot attached

Finally finished the front coil over, and f-body brake swap. It took a while working a few hours most weekends, and never having attempted this type of large scale project. Props to Renz for the F-Body brake kit, and excellent instruction details, and also to Jeff Scott for the coilover kit. I still need to go for an alignment, but I drove it today, and gave it a bath (man I need a car cover). Came back, and checked for leaks and everything looks good. I'll be sure to have the pros give my work the once over when I get it aligned.

Got my HD Propshaft from D&R Driveline. Excellent service. Took 1 day to ship it. Almost ready to go to the Track and see what I get with my new Setup.

Got my alignment this week, and planed to go out to Woodstock for an open house today. Planned to take the Tahoe, but rolled the Ty instead....shoulda taken the Hoe. Get off the highway and hear some clunking when I hit the brakes on the passenger side. Turned around and carefully drove it back home, now I hear a grinding too. Time to put it up to check it out...but not today. I'm not gonna deal with it today. Sucks.
