| Looking forward to seeing the build as it progresses, Larry. Saw you and the Lamplighter Camaro team at XRP a week or so ago, meant to stop by and introduce myself, but was rather busy. I think it is great that you share your builds, and help keep the sport alive by introducing kids & grandkids to drag racing.

| Foot, we will be at XRP from time to time, so please look us up. We were busy also working on a driving left situation and too much wheelie. We have both corrected now.

| Working on a truck is a beautiful thing! Remove the bed, complete access to modifying the rear suspension. After a time of thought, I plan to install a set of ladder bars. They will do everything I want in this situation. I will also install them about 4" inboard of the factory frame so that if in the future I want a larger tire it will be an easy upgrade. Installing a Chevy 12 bolt will also be part of this exercise. Here she is on my trusty, home-built tables that allow placing components at ride height and allowing a good view of the fitment.

| By tha way, hardcore builders[especially those who are old and fat,] require a lift for convenient working height.

| Some notes, as I begin this project, I recognize the Colorado/Canyon as a good package. It has a full-frame, rack and pinion steering, coil-over front spring with a-arms, it is overall about 3" wider and 3" longer than the S-10. I expect it to be a very nice footbraker.
