Are those tires bias ply or radial?

Thanks, and yes they are bias ply tires

Dang Joe! I was really hoping you would go with a 6" lift and some 35s! Maybe some custom gold leaf lettering for the sides, (Joes Plumbing), shag carpet in back..mirrored ceiling!

Nice Panel!

**rustytruck50** · 10-24-2017, 10:03 PM

That qualifies as a major score, Joe!! I've heard about these, but have never seen one up until now...real cool!!

67toroflowlonghorn · 10-26-2017, 01:35 PM

Have any new pictures of the Panel with the new tires on it? Id love to see it!

No new pics yet. I'm going to polish the paint Saturday. Once that's all done I'll put the wheels and tires on it

**Joesjunk** · 10-28-2017, 06:17 PM

Here's a little sneak peek of today's progress.....

**lolife99** · 10-28-2017, 08:26 PM

That's looking great!

**mongocanfly** · 10-28-2017, 10:05 PM

wow...that's cleaning up real nice...

**HO455** · 10-28-2017, 11:06 PM

Yikes!!!! That's awesome!!

**3757chevy** · 10-28-2017, 11:27 PM

Nice. Is there an armrest on the driver side? My 67 step side only had one on that side not the passenger and only had a sunshade on the driver side as well. It's like the didn't want the passenger to get to comfortable.

No arm rests on either side, but it has 2 visors. What is odd to me is that it's a "Custom" but no arm rests. It must just be a Panel thing.

vectorit · 10-29-2017, 01:03 PM

Looking good!

**Ol Blue K20** · 10-28-2017, 11:42 PM

I'm loving it!!!

**rustytruck50** · 10-29-2017, 01:10 AM

LOL, its all pent up from when I was a kid. We didn't dare do anything to make dad upset. He would "Turn this station wagon around" if we got too far out of line. Sometimes it was tough going for four boys on a family road trip

BTW ... Is it done yet?

**Joesjunk** · 11-19-2017, 05:48 PM

Well it's all done, except for some little detailing and probably a new windshield. The seats were both torn so I bought some NOS material and had the seats redone.

**Joesjunk** · 11-19-2017, 05:51 PM

It polished up really good.

Wow! That is turning out really nice, where did you get your nos material for the seats? And I was wondering if the floor mat you used was for a p/u with no coverage between the seats like a blazer needs.

68panelman · 11-19-2017, 05:53 PM

Looks amazing Joe, great job in and out. Any plans for the wood floor?
