Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

I second John..

These are my two choices for the truck I am building for my wife.. I figured whatever I came across first for a decent price I would go with although I have now passed on a few sets of rallys so it appears I am looking for the slots.. Problem where I am is unless I buy something new all the slots I see up my way are 16.5's or 14's.. Very few 15's pop up forsale. If I had both as you I would keep them both and swop them based on my mood that month

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics

My only problem is that if I decide on the slots, I`ll have step down to a 7 inch in the front for the disc brake widens the track by 3/4 inch each side which will put it into the fender.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics

I think my wheels are boring. The only real problem I think is they need to be a differnt color. I was either going to go with an off white or black. I think black without hub caps would look better.

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
