That looks great! The contrasting colors look awsome.

Re: Mike's 66 swb dropmember build
I feel like I'm starting to make some progress now. Got tired of waiting for my 22" Coy's so I had them send me a set of 20's. I still need to get my tie rod adapters from porterbuilt so I can put the rack on. I didn't realize I didn't have them until yesterday. My wife keeps asking me when the truck will be done. Please excuse the Ford in the picture, that's my beater I drive to work.

Re: Mike's 66 swb dropmember build
The 20" look great ... although I'd have opted for the staggered 22/20 combo but what the hey.
Can't wait till the cab/bed have been installed. Ratty 46 |

Re: Mike's 66 swb dropmember build
Looks great!
What's the wheel size, backspacing, and tire size? I assume those tires are directional?

Re: Mike's 66 swb dropmember build
Wheels are 20 x 8 1/2 with 5.25 backspace. 255/35/20. After looking at the picture looks like I have a couple of the tires backwards. I didn't realize they were directional.

Re: Mike's 66 swb dropmember build
Looks killer!
Do you have a target date for it to be rolling down the highway? Would love to see it at some of the Midwest shows this year.

Re: Mike's 66 swb dropmember build
Been working on painting the engine and trans. Still waiting for my tie rod adapters. Will post some pics when I get done putting the engine in.

Re: Mike's 66 swb dropmember build
that looks really good!! That is almost the same blue that my 65 was years ago. I like the contrast between it and the black.
What headers are those on that engine?

Re: Mike's 66 swb dropmember build
Headers are from Summit Racing. I think they were Patriot Clippster Headers made to fit an early camaro or chevelle. They fit real nice with no clearance problems. I'm having a drive shaft made right now.
