Thanks Mike, this is an exciting stage of a build, every little thing seems like it makes a big improvement now.

Scott, that's a heck of a before and after picture!!!!!

sduckworth13 · 02-18-2014, 11:20 PM

Looking good Jason. I found some old pictures of your buddy buckets while looking thru my computer.

Those buddies look incredible.. wow.

sduckworth13 · 02-19-2014, 10:26 PM

l thought you might like that Jason, I haven't had my laptop computer working in a long time and just got it working last night. I was going through the pictures and came across those.

Thanks Scott, I was happy with them. After they wet sand the clear and buff them they should look like glass. Both these guys do great work and they love Hot Rods. They have full time jobs at the collision shop and do side jobs like mine in the evenings and Saturdays.

jeh · 03-02-2014, 07:29 PM

Should have the bed all together next weekend, I ordered a polished stainless steel bolt kit for the bed. I think that will pop with all the black paint. Maybe order a 4/6 ECE drop tomorrow before I leave for work so I can get the suspension finished up. I'm still trying to make up my mind on wheels, I need to pull the trigger on them also. I look at all the nice trucks here on the forum and the wheel decision gets confusing.

Bennett68C10 · 03-02-2014, 07:38 PM

Bedsides look great Jason. Good luck choosing the wheels, hopefully your better at figuring out what you want then I was, took me three sets

mud.man.rj · 03-02-2014, 08:22 PM

There are a lot of wheel types to choose from, plus the wait time is rough sometimes.

I've been looking at wheels since I bought the truck, that's been 2 1/2 years now. I had a set of 15" Torq Thrust on it but after seeing trucks with 20's I new that's what I wanted.

Thanks Keith, I watched you buy and sell your wheels on your build. I was thinking you would maybe pass me down a set. LOL

sduckworth13 · 03-02-2014, 11:10 PM

The 4/6 drop will look cool. I was looking on craigslist to see if there was any 4/6 drop setups and I found one. The guy was asking retail for it though. It had a drop center crossmember and trailing arms too.
Its for a 1966, not sure if that works for our trucks too but I think it does.

Jason, Tommy has a nice deal on some wheels on the parts forum now.

Scott, you teasing me with those Daytonas. I like them but I don't want to run 22's in the back. Tommy definitely runs some killer deals though. I need to order a set of Fesler tail lights from him soon.

sduckworth13 · 03-03-2014, 09:59 AM

The Fesler lights will look great, I like them too.

I guess Tommy sold his last set in stock, bummer, have to wait for more to come in.

sduckworth13 · 03-03-2014, 09:31 PM

Your teasing us, I thought for sure we were going to see a bed on the truck

jeh · 03-03-2014, 09:47 PM

I have to leave for work tomorrow so it will probably weekend after next before I get it put on. I'm getting anxious myself! I would like to have a new set of wheels on it before I bring it back home but not sure if I can swing it right now $$$$. At least I can drive it on and off the trailer now.
