NorCal's last "official" show is the GoodGuys Fall-Get together on Nov 5 and 6.

Getting back to the thread.. Nice rig.. trailer or camper special(?), west coast mirrors, and wimbledon white and "new lime" two-tone. Looks pretty clean. My 70 is all New Lime and I've been ponding going two-tone.. Thanks for the pics! I assume that's the beach cruiser in the bed.

What's up with the "X" tape on the headlights? I did that for road racing on my dual purpose autcrosser. That pup must howl and be a handful with them tall sidewalls!!

Looks lowered. What suspension mods ya done on 'er?

Nice clean original, looks to be pretty unmolested, other than the suspension of course.

THanks guys ,
It is a 75 camper special, it has a 460 big block with an edelbrock 750 and updated plugs , wires, etc nothing too fancy yet.
I can roast the hell outta the whitewalls though HEHE
The lowering is done via a front hanger flip a couple of removed leafs and welded new spring perches for the pinion, ( I don't care what people say on this forum about the shims!!! DOESN'T drive smooth at all unless you fix that angle) It has adjustable airride shockwaves on it. The front coils are the heavy duty springs with 2 cutout drives great. The wheels are stock up front and the rear are off a bronco 8" wide.
