Thanks guys, but we have a few little things to take care of before we are all done........ so, we're off to "Kev's Classic" for
1. A refurbished matching tilt column.
2. Dolling up the instrument cluster with the tach and air pressure gauges
3. Plus a new shiny smile with my favorite grill of all times a 63', once Kevin sends it out to have it chromed of course!!!!!
I can hardly wait! Thank you uncle Kevin!!!!!!

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
Thanks guys, I dropped only the parts off at Kevin's not the truck, he'll call me when to bring the truck once he's ready to install them, unfortunately I can't rush a perfectionist.

Kevin called and he's ready for "The Pumpkin" this weekend, so I'll be dropping it off Saturday morning and if I stay out of his way he should have it done hopefully Sunday. Yippee!!! I can't wait to see the new chrome smile.

Nice truck. The current stance looks good. I'm kinda partial to the stock look. I may have missed it. What did the hubcaps come off of?
