Thanks! It really doesn't get out much, excepting weekends and the occasional trip to/from work.

The center caps are from another HAMBer, dashman. He does really nice stuff. The truck came from Wally World :P

**67cheby** · 10-03-2011, 04:53 PM

and great meeting you also SCOTI !

Painter D · 10-03-2011, 06:06 PM

I somehow missed out on meeting any new members on Sat. but I did check out your truck :Gringo, I like it. It also says alot that you drove it instead of trailering it. Like SCOTI said, much respect.

**67cheby** · 10-03-2011, 06:18 PM

darn, i thought i met all of the board members that were there, maybe i will be there with my truck in March..LOL, i can dream cant i ??

Thanks a lot! It was built to be enjoyed. There was a point on the I-state, it was chuggin' along so smoothly, I forgot I was driving an old truck. Kinda fun working all of the bugs out of the ol' girl...

gringoloco · 10-24-2011, 11:16 PM

Boxes in the kitchen...

gringoloco · 10-24-2011, 11:20 PM

Turned into toys in the living room

Please don't mind my grubby finger prints...

gringoloco · 10-24-2011, 11:23 PM

Of course I had to check and make sure the center caps would fit. I'd say they fit better than the chrome caps that came with the wheels- look better too, IMO...

denny5625 · 10-24-2011, 11:26 PM

Very nice!

gringoloco · 10-24-2011, 11:28 PM

I'd say they're a good start. 20x8.5, 5.25 BS and 20x10, 5.5 BS. They will need some work before tires are mounted. I have a few ideas for them- more to come as details develop...

denny5625 · 10-24-2011, 11:28 PM

Whats the finish on those? looks fairly easy to keep clean.

gringoloco · 10-24-2011, 11:38 PM

Dunno if they're paint or powder, but yes, they would be easy to clean. Think I'm gonna ruin that

71Sleeper · 10-24-2011, 11:41 PM

I so want a set. Maybe in the future.
