Dude, how many more trucks do you need to complete your collection? I guess there is always room for one more.

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...

Thanx for all the positive input...
Seems I recall Clem mentioning something along the lines of "lining up projects..."

Plans so far are to drag this one home soon, then evaluate the direction I want to take...

gotta do some research about swapping spindles and disc brakes onto the 61 front end...

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...

Finally some truck time... albeit a small amount, but truck time nonetheless…

My friend that works at a machine shop, hooked me up by getting these pistons milled out for free...

Thanx Clem, and although it wasn't quite as cold here, 41, the house heater kicked on...

As mentioned earlier in our chat, I like those.

Do they not interfere with the stick?

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...

I salute my fellow Veterans!

Yesterday was a good news kinda day… First, my visit to the ortho doc for X-rays showed that my leg is healing good (Praising God for healing) and now it's the walking boot for another 3 weeks or so, then an ankle brace that can be worn in a shoe…

Then, later in the day, the current owner of the '61 I plan on dragging home came by the parts store. Following a chat about trucks, his '63 and the '61, we discussed my tattooing and it looks as though the '61 will be mine in exchange for some artwork...
