About time you got this started! Dang we waited like a whole day for it. So...spill the beans on the plans. Otherwise I will just continue to think you just wanted a farm truck. :lol:

Whatever man you are just like the rest of us. We have plans even before we get a truck. :lol:

It looks like a great starting point. I want to know where it is sitting at in the pics. There are quite a few nice rides in there. Is that where projects go waiting for a start? :D

Keep us updated man!

It is in the back lot at hills hot rods!
If you look at the shop tour in the new streettrucks you can see a few other pics of the back lot!

What kind of bed do you have in mind ? I ask because that looks like a cab/ chassis truck and it will need a narrow bed not a dually bed.

CHEESE 10-09-2009 09:54 AM

Re: The Project With No Name
 
A dooley bed is gonna fit

A "cab & chassis rearend" will help tuck those 10-lug semi wheels!

'78 was a really good year, right Dennis? :D

Looks like a good base to start with, Cheese, looking forward to the updates!

When I started selling Jeeps last year, I thought to myself..."I am gonna use a set of those headlights on something." They are a great subtle update to older vehicles. Kinda like putting the Mini Cooper lights on a 39.

Re: The Project With No Name
 
my daily is a four door jeep and the lights work well and are going to be brighter than factory 78 lamps!!
