I don't own one but will see what pictures I have. You want pro-street,as in street legal drag race/NHRA-style,not road racer,as in circuit course/SCCA-style...right? You can do anything with a longbed that can be done with a shortbed. Now when it comes to hauling,a longbed can do more. Here's the best one I have

Just wanted to share.This is my friends it's a short bed though. He does all the tub work, shortens axels, and framework himself. He's built some mean pro street stuff when that style was a little more popular.

I think I just found the orange I've been looking for.
I have searched orange 60-66 trucks for sometime now.
My 66's original color was orange.

wow can't believe this thread got bumped after I asked for pics years ago.

I no longer have my truck and had moved onto other projects which is complete but I really want to get back into the 67-72 era and move away from the Fuel injected crap.
