Thanks AD & Jim! I don't want to do too many body mods but I thought this would work for this build?

Looking good, did you just pie cut the bed 2 inches at the top?

Drifters 02-21-2015 12:13 PM

Re: 68c10/c6
 
Thanks! I did it was a long bed so I had to cut it down anyway.

Diggin' the frame table! Trucks are super COOL.

Re: 68c10/c6
 
Thanks Ed that table has built many a racecar! A being on wheels makes it convenient the 67 is going to be my driver I thought I'd put the money into that rather then buy a new one!

Another vote for Munssey Speed. Jeff is a great guy with great products. He also does one-off carbon fiber work and can pretty much make anything you want.

Looking good Drifters. A fun way to evaluate before paint.

You gonna be taking this to cruise nights in Escondido through the summer? I'm moving back to Oceanside in May it would be cool to see this in person.

Maybe I may wait until it's done! But your welcome to come by the shop and check it out! I'm literally a mile from Grand ave.

Re: 68c10/c6
 
I was wondering if you are using wheel spacers with those wheels? If so, how thick?

Drifters 04-10-2015 11:00 AM

Re: 68c10/c6
 
No I'm not! The stock Vette width is perfect for this truck although I do have just enough space for Z06 wheels which is what I'll be using on this truck!

Any updates on the video? Awesome build. Did you use the vette clutch and brake pedal?
