Re: New Member and my first Truck '62
Welcome to the forum and great looking truck. That shift knob looks very interesting. Watch your knees and palms on that one. What are you plans with the truck?

Re: New Member and my first Truck '62
Mighty cool! How about a close up of those wheels? Are they stock? What kind of center are you running?

Re: New Member and my first Truck '62
Very cool ride. Watch your knees on the doors too. They don't call em knee knockers cause it sounds cool.

Just some steel rims with chrome spider caps. Not 100% sure on the color yet, but it is growing on me.

Re: New Member and my first Truck '62
