Now that someone else took the first step so to speak - I will also
admit to not having heard of Walker Evans... I looke dhim up and came
across his web site - pretty impressive race bacgroudn for sure. And no
he seems to be a Chevy guy himself. His race willing truck was a Chevy,
and his new rock crawling truck is a Chevy as well (S-10 front clip)
that will be out in Petersons next issue - may already be on stands now.
A sneak peak independant suspension that is supposed to move the
wheels staright up and down on the control arms as opposed to in an arc
as traditional set ups have used.
