of the 'Ol 68. I bagged it, put some 10" rallys out back, new mirrors and a tonneau. Check it out and let me know what you think.

67Fleet · 03-10-2007, 05:06 PM

Looks great. Where's the aired out pics?

bed. So when Im aired out... it just sits on the axle.

I'll post more pics with it aired out.

Yes... it is a slant-side tonneau. I'm very pleased with it. It only took about 15-20 mins. to install and fits pretty well.

spdrcr29 · 03-10-2007, 05:06 PM

Looks great! Is that one of the Sportmaster slant side tonneaus?

1LoC10 · 03-10-2007, 05:41 PM

very nice and clean truck

stllookn · 03-10-2007, 05:58 PM

Are you running drop spindles in the front? I want to see the "aired-out" pics too!

jeff1vol · 03-10-2007, 06:10 PM

I haven't decided if i want to go with discs in the front yet or not. I like the way it is now, so I'm having a hard time talking myself into spending that kind of money for a couple more inch drop.

67shortie · 03-10-2007, 06:13 PM

The truck looks great, very nice

**70cst** · 03-10-2007, 06:34 PM

That is one

looking truck.

It is trucks like yours that gives us with fixer-

uppers the hope that we need to stay the course.

WTB3 · 03-10-2007, 07:09 PM

Looks good...So how low does it go?

Big Block · 03-10-2007, 07:19 PM

I like the 10's out back it looks good. In the pictures it looks like you have shoulder belts installed. What kind did you use?

Longhorn Man · 03-10-2007, 07:51 PM

I've always loved your truck...that sucker is sweet

cooters · 03-10-2007, 08:28 PM

looks awesome. Did you redrill your rotors for car bolt pattern?

jeff1vol · 03-10-2007, 09:44 PM

and I bought them from a place in Cali. called Pete Paulsens. Quality product, but it took me about six damn weeks to get 'em!

I don't have shoulder belts. You are probably seeing the kids seat on the passenger side.

You can't EVER start 'em too early!

Spray-Bomb · 03-10-2007, 10:44 PM

Did you bag the front too ?

Also can we see some pics from under the truck

KFreddy · 03-11-2007, 12:40 AM

15x10" out back and 15x 8s in the front? What size tires are you running?

Thanks,

-Fred

RACINJASON22 · 03-11-2007, 01:16 AM

GR8 looking truck there. Sportmaster slant side tonneaus? Never heard of them does it open to the side. Open it if it does in one of the aired-out pics, two for one show.

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 03-11-2007, 01:41 AM

Nice ride you have there..

72 CustomCamper · 03-11-2007, 02:01 AM

Hey Jeff, looks alot better with the Vette rallys than the truck ralleys. I see ya got the grill trim back in too...

Chuck

TRUCKER-TRUCKIN' · 03-11-2007, 02:05 AM

That is one sweet truck, whats the tire sizes?

Bishops Trucks · 03-11-2007, 03:28 AM

Nice looking truck Jeff.

**special-K** · 03-11-2007, 07:11 AM

Just the way I like`em.That`s the`68 of `68s.

mnunn454 · 03-11-2007, 08:16 AM

Very nice. Very nice indeed. Looks like it could by my truck's one year "older brother".

I too like your ralleys and the way it sits on bags. Cool.

If you're ever in New England with it, stop by. Would love to take some pictures together in front of a Newport Mansion or something.
