Re: my 65 fleetside build
a little update on the truck, she went on her maiden voyage to the dragstrip last night, and she done fairly well considering i was on street tires, but a set of slicks are on the way. she went a 7.82 at 85.69 mph 1/8th mile. i was very pleased. hope she will pick up some with a little more traction.

finally installed the hood with the help of my son, my new wheels came in so we mounted the drag radials and put 235/70s on the front, wish i had went with 275/60s but its too late now, didnt get to go to the track friday but we might be going to steele ala. this weekend and try the 1/4 mile out. you can see i dont have the marker lights in when we took the pics but they are now, seat belts are in and installed the double springs on the carb, should be legal now lol.
