Well, it's been a while....the wait is over. The metamorphosis has begun on a truck that I have owned before (Lassie came home) a 1972 short fleet.... 350/350, power brakes, power steering, Plus a Kevin Hernandez;) tilt and tach. combo, oh did somebody say "Buddy Buckets"? What do you think white walls or slots?:chevy:

and crooked would look good with those white walls and hub caps and your cars would look good with a detail =]
and a couple burps and maybe ill let you give my girlfriend some more hugs lol =]

I vote slots this time.Maybe it`s the all white paint.The blackwalls make the aluminum wheels pop and they make the mouldings pop?All white with trim is pure class.But those wheels set it off and it just takes you back over 40 year and back to present without missing a stroke.The width is perfect.It`s so California!:lol:...Trucks like that started my 40 year drool.Remember when we called them dish mags or just deep dishes?I say slots for the King!

Special-K, I think you hit the nail on the head, all the white needed was some black. And yes I remember "deep dishes". Boy, I'm getting old!!!!

I have always called them dish mags. We had them on our 58 Apache back in the 70's. I never heard the term "slots" until I came to this message board. :lol:
