Moved Trans Tunnel Up 2":

moved. (Click picture for Larger View)
Suspension:
The factory frame was cut off right at the back
of the cab. Cool Cars Crew designed a unique tubular frame that ran under
the rear axle.
3- 3 gallon tanks plumbed into frame once the framing was complete, the
cool cars crew then incorporated 3- 3 gallon firestone air tank into the
design of the frame. (Click picture

to start the design of our custom cantalever rear suspension. (Click

appealed to everyone (ROADSTER). (Click
