Re: Project 68 - Radical Rebirth of my First Truck

I've got the bedsides temporarily set into place while I measure for wheels. The target was a 20x10 with 4.00 backspace. This is a Billet Specialties wheel from another project. Not what I'll be using but a dang nice wheel. I have a set of 315/35/20 tires for mockup. Looks like I can squeeze in 20x12's as long as I get the backspacing perfected. This is an old photo... I have wheels on order right now.
Just for grins these are the Hills Rod & Custom inner fenders. You can see how much height difference and additional clearance there is. They are HEAVY fiberglass and well made from what I can see so far.

This is about all I have right now to share. I almost have the cab patches finished but no pics yet. I saved the driver's side fender and I'm debating whether I should try and save the old passenger fender and core support. There's very little left of the original truck so I'm tempted to save what I can.
