Very Nice! Looks great!! Just like the tri five chevys I think our trucks look cool with the tops painted a different color / white in your case! Lets see some pics of it going down the road.....

Very nice indeed! Lowered to have a nice stance. What suspension/brakes setup do you have? Drop spindles and lowering springs I suspect? Tell all and hold nothin' back!

Looks awesome. I was looking at 17" rims but your pics changed my mind. Hey, in your pictures it says posted by way of mobile. How do you post pics from mobile? Mine won't look on my phone for the pics. Thanks.

Thanks for the info.:c2: I'll see if I can figure it out. I take pics with my phone and email to myself. Fire up the old laptop and post pics that way. I have more pics for my build thread but to time consuming.

Looks fantastic!

Re: My 63 is road ready...
 
Yeah, I noticed how the paint looks distressed and a bit flat. That makes it look great. Done wrong and it looks bad but yours was done RIGHT!

How is your truck lowered? Drop spindles and drop springs? Gimme the details please! What paint codes?

If you need one, I think I can find the 4-section antenna that was on my '66--it's about 1/2 -5/8-inch in diam on the bottom section and, of course, is extended really high and bent into an arc toward the rear!:lol:

Nice ride! Wheels really complete the 'deal'!
