Re: Gramps got some new shoes!!!!
Looking good! That definitely fits your truck and IMO completes it.

Re: Gramps got some new shoes!!!!
I must admit, I'm not usually a fan of the modern larger diameter wheels on these older trucks, but man, those sure do look good. They're like a modern interpertation of the old slotted mag. Good job Dude, looks sweet.

Re: Gramps got some new shoes!!!!
Off the subject, I like the 1968 Oklahoma farm truck tag. I found a 1971 tag for mine that I plan on running but it's not a farm truck tag. I'd sure like to find one! oh and wheels look sweet!

It's tubbed but the rear suspension didn't have to be moved did it? Sorry I'm too lazy to go re-read your buildup.

Thanks!
