Hahaha . Thanks soooo much, but not for sale.

I've never been a white wall guy but the older I get the more I look at them. They are a rarity on today's vehicles.
Yup, the toppers I use mostly when I attend auto swapmeets, so much easier to store parts in the back without having to worry about someone walking away with them.... The white wall is just a personal thing that I always liked on original looking trucks.

Yup, a factory "granny" four that still works well.... and the tilt, made by forum member "Kevin Hernandez" is the icing on the cake!!!!

Rene, you did a great job on that patina. Looks so real!!!

Is it a 283 under that hood? If you decide to part...
Tim, I'm glad you liked my patina job .... a 292 with dual pipes sits under the hood.
