Re: 1956 las vegas or bust build

Looks great, love the stance. Don't understand the beed comment, the wood is bolted to the cross support rails and sides and end so it is all intact when you remove the bed.

Re: 1956 las vegas or bust build

the bed is in pieces i believe it is the original bed. When i was using the air tools it was falling to the ground in chunks. just want to try and keep it as original as possible.

The truck looks great. It definately epitomizes the saying less is more.

Re: 1956 las vegas or bust build

I know this is an old thread but I've had it book marked for a couple of years now and wanted to know how this truck turned out. Was the ride and handling what you expected? And do you have any recent shots of this truck? I love every single aspect of this thing
