Today I put the new wheels on it. I have left the 1/2" wheel studs for now and used tapered lug nuts. This summer it will get a disc brake front end, and I will swap the rear studs over to 9/16" at that time too. I really like the white wheels over the old black ones. This summer I will pull the wheels off again and repaint them.

I am taking the split rims in to the tire shop to have these old tires taken off. I will put the split rims up in the garage rafters just in case I ever restore this old beast.
The truck needs exhaust bad. The exhaust shop is next to the wheel shop so when I take these old split rims in I will have some exhaust put on too.

As you can see in the second picture my boys enjoyed the truck too.
