I love the look and I'm planning to do something similar on my '68 COPAo Concept build. Subscribed.

Are those all stock wheel wells, I'm looking to do something like this, like 15x9 but mine is a 8 foot stepper, just curious if they fit factory trucks

The front wheels on my truck were stock, and the rear were mid-70's 15 X 8 six lug 4X4 rims.

Yes they fit stock wheels wells because the wheels are deeper on the outer side which had a lot of clearence anyway

Here are the steel wheels I built from 15 x 10 blanks from Speedway & the centers I cut out of original wheel. Couldn't find a Beauty Ring to fit, so I made my own Bead Locks & I can change the SST rings any time I want. Just make up new design, laser cut & bolt on.

These trucks look great! I should be able to post up pics of mine, now that the temp is warm enough to paint. I want to do 10" wide on the rear, but I can't seem to find a reputable shop to do it.

Diggin' the car caps. I have '65 Pontiacs for my '67 GMC. I have 4 8s now so I can rotate, but want a couple 10s for drag radials. My '70 pro-street Stepside had 8" & 12" steelies with stock caps

Those Pontiac caps look really cool. I have some on steelies on my GTO at the moment.
