1960 Panel - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jwalk · 08-28-2013, 09:53 PM

Picked this panel up the other day! Plans are to keep it fairly budget minded shop truck for my business. Slowly gather up parts I'll need to build it next summer. So far I've got a 6 liter with a 4L80 and my wheels and tires. I want to bag it, just don't know if I should use the frame under it or look for a 63 up chassis. But here's some pictures.

Thanks! They are the GM transport wheels they use to ship their trucks/SUVs when ordered with custom accesory wheels.
