JUST finished 1960
tonite we just stabbed the engine & transmission in my fathers 1960. paint and body was finished yesterday, interior was finished about a month ago, we still have to install the dash. what do you think? we are trying to figure out a way for the tail gate to open without using chains. i was thinking of seatbelts hidden in the bed.
ANY ideas? Last edited by yt500pmd; 03-14-2003 at 02:22 AM. |

First of all, truck looks fantastic! Now there are a couple of things I really want to know. First, where did your instrument guages come from. Also, what are the seats out of, they look great! Oh, one more thing... I don't know about you but I have never had good luck with children running around a fresh paint job with a hockey stick! lol just kidding. It really looks great!

First of all, truck looks fantastic! Now there are a couple of things I really want to know. First, where did your instrument guages come from. Also, what are the seats out of, they look great! Oh, one more thing... I don't know about you but I have never had good luck with children running around a fresh paint job with a hockey stick! lol just kidding. It really looks great! Ro " 1. the instrument cluster was made out of 1/4 inch thick black lexan, the chevy symbol was laser etched and filled in with paint. i designed and made it. thanks for the compliment 2. the seats are out a 1995 chevy fullsize, with a center console reupholstered in the color you see, but keeping the original pattern. just so you know the bolt pattern matched EXACHTLY, just 1 hole had to be drilled. 3. the child was the painters son, so, as you can see in the picture my father was not even worried!! lol
