Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
I don't really like plain looking engines like that, you should add a little chrome to it.

I purchased the truck for my wife. She likes long beds. However as the process continued it turned into more of a show truck. I bought her a '68 VW beetle that she loves and the truck is more mine now. I would rather it be a short bed. Thought about cutting the bed down as others have done but the labor involved would made it cheeper for me to purchase from LMC. I don't weld. And while I'm at it why not put in a wood bed…….etc….. |

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
Very nice work. Your truck is a work of art. I did notice the headlight bezels are swapped. Notice the adjusting indentions for putting a screw driver in the adjusting screws. What kind of seats are you putting in?

While looking for alternative place for gas filler I actually found others on this website and on the show 'Trucks" that made this mod. I did not want to lower tailgate to fill gas. cheers. |
