Looks very solid from the pictures. They are hard to find over here on the East Coast.

Thanks, it is a Utah truck before 2002, when the PO drove it to PA. I bought it from him in 2007 and am working on it little by little......Box was from S. Dakota.

really nice truck and great project - it will be sweet when done. Love the original color combo - whitew over green & white would look awesome! What are your plans? Resto? Build-it-like-you-want-o? Or what? Whatever the plan, it's gonna be very nice.

Cool pickup. I have two of these myself and just recently acquired a set of stock 16" wheels like what appear to be on yours. Mine turned out to be only 5" wide, would you happen to know how wide yours are?

How does one measure that? Or is it stamped in somewhere?

**med.bronze** · 03-31-2012, 06:16 PM

It's actually stamped on the inside of the wheel. I had assumed mine would be 6" until I had the tires taken off and discovered the stamping stating they were 5". I was just curious if there were several sizes of the 6 hole 16" wheels.

By stating the inside of the wheel, you mean the portion you can't see with the tire on, right?
Thanks

yep, that's correct. I've seen a few of the 15"x6" wheels stamped on the rim.
