Re: my nephews 1960
Love that truck - I'm a sucker for shortfleets with the big window, and I don't see many '60 chevs like that. Truck looks great.
By the way - could you tell me what size/make tires those are Dino? Thanks. I like the look - and I'm using the same hubcap/wheel combo on my 66 (soon). Last edited by jocko; 07-04-2010 at 11:16 AM. |
