I had rally wheels on there before that, 10" wide in the back and 8" in the front, these pontiac wheels are too skinny, if not careful and I get on it, I can lose control


Frankenstein!!!!



I would love to find some huge bolts and put them on the sides of the cab, ala Frankenstein
You just made my boy (age 4) practically fall out of the chair. "Daddy, it's the HULK!!!" he screamed. LOL!

You could go with steel bridge rivets for the side bolts though. They're really huge and would stand out properly.

lol, HULK, that would be a cool truck too, Mean Green

See my dad gave me the truck, his name is Frank, and since the truck has all these diff parts, like Frankenstein, that is why I named it that.

I am kinda thinking of these botls


something alone these lines, but thanks for your info

Re: where are all the 60-66 stepsides

Cool story. The family history makes that truck priceless!


For your bolts - I guess these rivets are too big?
XD



If you went with something 4-5 inches in diameter you could use them as a hand-hold for getting in the truck and they'd stand out quite a bit, but smaller like those 2 inchers would be less likely to catch you in the cap as you're walking by in the garage.

Either way it'll be a great addition. I'd like to see pics once it's done.
