I like the look of this truck. This looks good.

I'm in the market for some new shoes and I think I can only get used tires through the the "War Department" aka my wife. I've got two kids, bills, and a wife, so any advice on where to find decent used tires?

Who makes those wheels if I may ask? The set on the Hugger Orange Chevrolet. I have a 1968 GMC that I need wheels and tires for and really like what your truck is rolling on. Thanks

Truck has been sold, but it rode pretty well. Was fun to drive for sure.

Re: C20 Tire Size

That's great. I might put big block coils in the front of mine to level it out
