EVLPMKN, what size wheels and tires are you rolling on there. Looks good.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks

My class room walls are covered in music and car posters I dont drive it to work very often due to my insurance policy. When I do I lock it up behind the school cafateria.

Thanks! I never thought I could build it this nice when I started. I think all my years of studying and performing music has taught me to pay close attention to every detaial, large or small.

Some parts I painted 3 to 4 times to get it right.

Not mine but a picture of this work horse should be included. Spotted in a very small Idaho back woods town. Wanted to check out the 4 wheel drive but a big guard dog refused access.

I got the tank from Early Classic Enterprises and it went in like butter. One thing I would have done differently is used the straight filler neck instead of the 90 degree.

http://www.earlyclassic.com/

I also used their drop kit/power disk brake kit/ suspension rebuild kit / and their patch panels. Their products are top notch and everything lined up perfect. Many items I bought from other companies took a lot of time to get fitted right.

I appreciate all the positive responces I have revieved on my truck.

Soon, hopefully, I will start a post build thread. When I started this build I did not have a digital camera so I have some pictures that need scanned and I don't have a scanner.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks

Thought you guys might like a pic of the shop truck. It has a 9000 lb. winch on the back for pulling vehicles up on my trailer. It also has louvers on the hood sides which help keep the under hood cool. I got those louvers from a couple of core supports.

That is a sharp looking truck. I particularly like the side trim, and that you kept the white area around the grille.

Give us the story behind this one. Drivetrain? Suspension? Original flatbed?
I love it!

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
