oldblue1968chevy,
I just finished a 64 Chevy Shortwide for my youngest son (19) and the Son I am building this one for is (26) which is my oldest Son (he's the one in the picture above). I have 5 kids so this could be a lifetime proposition if they all want one. My 19 year old is a machine when he gets to working. I wish I could take most of the credit but he does the lions share. I tend to be more about the bodywork and the paint and he does the patch panels (welding and alot of the grunt work like cleaning the frame and painting it). We both work on taking them apart and putting them back together at the end. My Wife does the bed and she does a great job. Her Dad was a Cabinet Maker and she inherited his finess with the OAK. You might say its a family effort when we get to going on these old trucks. I will post a picture of the wheels I am going to put on the truck later tonight.

Scored these at the Portland swapmeet for a really low price. A guy bought them for his truck that he was restoring and never restored the truck. They are 17 inch rims, now I have to find a great deal on some tires and the score will be complete. I think they should look ok on a black and silver paint job.
