Whatever it's called, it looks badass. Loving the buildup on this.

Dude, that Falcon wagon looks great and I'm neither a Ford nor a wagon guy.

I'm neither a Ford or Chevy guy, or Dodge, for that matter. I just dig cars and trucks.

That said, I'm partial to wagons, panels, sedan deliveries, big trucks, COEs, LWBs--anything funky and off the beaten track, or generally neglected by the rodding public. Probably the last truck I'd look for in a build-up would be a SWB, but I'm really starting to come around.

Great rides! I love the stance.

I like the stance now, but with the back lower it will be even better! Good job, it would look great cruising down the road with no hood and the springs sticking up

Lookin good :metal:

I noticed two different valve covers.....which ones you going to use? I vote for the vette covers.....

Eagletucky 03-11-2009 12:11 AM

Re: 1966 Chevy SWB Gasser influenced truck
 
Wow....thats nice. You are putting together one mean little truck. Perfect choices all around.:metal:

I agree on the valve covers, the corvette ones look the best.
