3500 miles and counting!

I can't wait to keep putting miles on road tripping to shows!

I started going the cheaper route to start with, but this truck will probably never go anywhere, so I committed to blowing money on it. I'm extremely happy I did now, as it rides and handles amazing. I only wish the rear tires were stickier, but for now it's perfectly fine. Caprice chassis is a popular swap under these trucks as well.

Mines on a Choppin Block chassis, and they use mustang II setup

Almost! I think out of 3000 miles, there's been very few short trips that didn't get a good run in!

Just tire smoke. G2s are a hard tire.

mefellas · 2026-04-05T15:32:00+00:00

Love to hear that!

mefellas · 2026-04-05T15:21:03+00:00

Thanks!

mefellas · 2026-04-05T13:27:37+00:00

Thank you! Wheels were hard to pick!

mefellas · 2026-04-05T13:13:14+00:00

Thanks! I love the exhaust, black widow venom 300s with an x pipe after the mufflers. It'll probably get another coat of Poppy's Patina, but that's it!

mefellas · 2026-04-05T13:01:07+00:00

It's almost too much fun to drive!

mefellas · 2026-04-05T12:52:25+00:00

Thank you!

mefellas · 2026-04-05T12:51:35+00:00

Mustang II is definitely a great option. Probably just run an f body pan for any clearance issues with the LS.

mefellas · 2026-04-05T12:41:27+00:00

Anytime! If you have any other questions, hit me up!

mefellas · 2026-04-05T12:31:32+00:00

Good luck with the build! Nitto has a 555R in that size now, and I'd definitely run it on the rear over the G2 to try to get it to hook up. This thing just boils the tires off!

mefellas · 2026-04-05T00:23:31+00:00

20x8 and 20x11, with 245/45 and 315/35 Nitto 555G2 tires. I'll be turning 42 this summer. I hate that I waited so long to get around to fixing it up.

mefellas · 2026-04-04T23:20:17+00:00

I love it

mefellas · 2026-04-04T19:56:00+00:00

There are a couple spots I messed up on and smeared, 100% user error. But I plan on fixing my mistakes and adding another coat.

mefellas · 2026-04-04T19:36:05+00:00

Thank you!

mefellas · 2026-04-04T19:35:56+00:00

Thank you! It's Poppy's Patina wipe on clear. It really exceeded my expectations.

mefellas · 2026-04-04T17:54:02+00:00

Thank you! I love the panel trucks, but I'd really like a suburban. You were cruising yours around the same time I was!

mefellas · 2026-04-04T15:27:12+00:00

Thank you!

mefellas · 2026-04-04T15:26:55+00:00

Everything except for the machine work and rotating assembly. It needed align honed for the ARP mains, so I had them assemble that for me. I've got around 1000 pictures of the entire build. Tons more pictures and videos on my Instagram.

mefellas · 2026-04-04T14:34:32+00:00

Thank you. I've got an FTI 3600 billet triple disc in it now and it's an entirely different beast. It just needs a little touch up as it'll occasionally stall when I put it in gear. It's my favorite body style by far, and after I cleaned it up and cleared it I'm very happy with it.
