Ahh .......... Inspiration
Saw this one in MV, don't care for the interior, almost exactly
what I am building except I'm going Black/White Houndstooth interior and a different wheel package. This one has a 20/22's combo (Same thing I want) and is a 4wd conversion. (Had the leafsprings still out in back) Also was running a BBC motor. ![]() My digi died, so I could not go hog wild taking pictures of it ![]()

Re: Ahh .......... Inspiration
I agree, that does look good, except the red interior. I like the '67 nose. Good luck on your build

Re: Ahh .......... Inspiration
Well, went back up to look at the second pic. again to see if I missed something, but I agree with guy to the rite of the truck who seems tobe thinking, that truck would look sweet if it didn't have a red interior. The guy by the front fender, leaning down, can't seem to find the tires either.
Just not a fan of red, as a matter of fact, it is the only interior color that doesn't work for me. To each his own...

Re: Ahh .......... Inspiration
Amen brother. Anyone can have boring black on black. That red is awesome. The only thing it needs is bags so it can tuck those tires....

Re: Ahh .......... Inspiration
Perfect, now put the dana 44 back up front and a 8 inch lift and 38s and it would be perfect, minus the red interior. That is a sweet ride just how it sets. I like!!

Re: Ahh .......... Inspiration
Wow, that's pretty impressive. I'm not a big rim fan, but I must admit, those look incredible on there. Actually don't look too big (wait, is that me saying that?!)

Re: Ahh .......... Inspiration
The wheels don't look bad, they fit the wheel arch nicely, but I think he forgot to mount up the tires. Good thing he's on grass or he mite scratch the rims
![]() That's why they make choclate and vanilla ice cream

Re: Ahh .......... Inspiration
Pic's do not do it justice, the interior was NOT factory red, more of a redish
pink leather. (to me anyways) It WAS done up really nice, I am just more of a Black on Black kinda guy. Like I said I wish I had more, but my digi died. ![]()

Re: Ahh .......... Inspiration
I agree with N2TRUX. I like the color combo (at least the way it appears in the pictures) and it needs bags.

Re: Ahh .......... Inspiration
Interesting how tastes change... A year ago I would of hated the red interior, but now I kind of like it. And yes that sucker needs to be bagged!
