my 65 fleetside build

[Modges'66]

Flip,
I cannot believe how nice that truck is!
Looks like it has more dust on it than anything else!
How the heck did you come across it?
What is the story on the other? Did you get both?
I thought that you were gonna do a muscle car for your wife!
You are killin' me right now. I wish that I had done the BBW conversion on mine!

Bump! For more of flips coolness.

the truck is extremely solid and came with a ton of parts, all new in the packs gm nos side moulding, one of the nicest aluminum grills I have ever seen before, 2 tailgates one original another new in the box, even a brand new in the box sliding rear glass which I will never use but was still kinda neat, gm nos rubber for the cab, 3 sets of custom cab sail panels, its already 5 lug power disc brakes, power steering and the list goes on, should be a fairly quick build I hope. as far as were I found it one of my buddies at church told me his brother had one he was thinking of selling and the rest is history. the truck behind it is a 66 bbw I was going to lighten up as much as possible and see if I could get it in the low 6 second range (1/8 mile). the wife decided it would be pretty to cool to have his and hers 65 trucks and I was happy happy happyyour truck is awesome with the small window I think, I wouldn't change a thing if I were you.

Thanks so much. I'll try to update about dad when I get back to my home computer. Glad to hear about the new shop, & the his/hers truck plan is just too cool. Sounds like you definitely found a great truck to work with as well.
