Thanks just looking at getting a LS3 engine back over at some point. I stupidly imported my truck last year in a container and did not put a single thing in the bed or the truck!

If you have room for a set of wheels I could be very interested?!

I imported a Limo over about 10 years ago and filled the thing up with Summit Racing Fuel Cells, Apexi goodies, Autometer gauges etc!!

56's are better IMHO, i have a 56 F350 coming over to use as a recovery vehicle, the 56 is the same as the 53-55 but has a wrap around windscreen, and different shape doors, the bonnet and wings and all the front end bits are the same

Damn right, hydraulics, black and chrome, and back to front jeans to pull the look off

But the more I see of them the more I crave one
