Re: My 1965 build thread
Top notch work as always Alan. I really enjoy seeing the work that you do.
One thing I thought I'd mention on mounting that radiator. Don't forget to check for clearance where the inner fenders bolt to the radiator support, and also check for interference with the battery tray. Some of those radiators are too wide to fit between there without modification to the inner fenders, and moving the battery tray over. You may have already thought of this, but thought I'd mention it just in case. |

Re: My 1965 build thread
Alan, if you don't want to do all the modifications necessary to use that radiator, you could just get one of the universal aluminum radiators from Summit. The #380328 will fit without modding the inner fenders, but you will have to move the battery over. I believe that #380325 will fit without anny mods. ChiefRocka did a writeup when he did his but I think he used the #380324.....look in his build thread.

This is what I mocked up today just to get a visual of what needs to be done. http://i369.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/DSC08676.jpg Today I was also able to mock the bed up to check a few things. http://i369.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/DSC08667.jpg I like the stance, I got a stiffy :lol: http://i369.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/DSC08675.jpg I'm kind of digging the rally wheel look. Just paint the wheels the color that is on the frame. http://i369.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/DSC08673.jpg Left side tire clearance. There is a little more than it looks, but I think I will roll the lip. The axle is centered in the frame. http://i369.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/DSC08668.jpg Rt side http://i369.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/DSC08671.jpg |

That does sit good Alan. I think rallys on these trucks are pretty hard to beat, but with all of the little(and big) custom touches, you need just a little :bling2: Just my $.02, but I'm sure whatever direction you go will be a solid choice. |
Re: My 1965 build thread
:ack:What?:eek:

Re: My 1965 build thread
Should have gotten a shlong bed. :lol:

Re: My 1965 build thread
The stance looks awsome. Put me down for a vote on the ralleys.
Man you are seriously making want a 65 or 66 for my next project. |
Re: My 1965 build thread
Just to clarify the intent of my last post--I wasn't meaning 20-plus inch rims and such. I was thinking of some nice polished aluminum 17's to kinda go with the custom theme of the truck. Again, this is just my opinion and I know it will look good no matter what Alan decides.
