Re: Where are the stockers?
The only custom touches on mine are fiberglass cowl hood, rear roll pan, filled filler neck, cab seams, and replaced tailgate chains with latches inside the bed, color, wheels, and interior. The drivetrain, frame, and majority of body are stock. The only reason for these changes were to add custom touches, clean up some body lines, and fill the void for parts that couldn't be found. As far as a hood goes mine was rusted out and there's a company nearby that makes fiberglass parts and their only stock 62-66 hood is a pin-on. But besides that, I just wanted to make it a good looking, comfortable show truck and classic cruiser.

Old custom classic trucks have soul. Their dashboards aren't plastic, and they've survived both the best and worst of what the 20th century had to offer. For the owners of these trucks, it's often the same story. Through both good and bad times they persevered, until one day they could turn the key and roll up in a customized truck everyone with good taste would admire. – Custom Classic Trucks
