You may remember this truck before I sold it to Dino....

Hickup pickup · 09-01-2010, 01:06 AM

When I got it back from Dino....

Hickup pickup · 09-01-2010, 01:08 AM

And after I got it done.......

Hickup pickup · 09-01-2010, 01:11 AM

And about 2 hours before I delivered the completly dissasembled frame to the media blaster this morning!!!!!!!

Subscribing for sure. Even though your truck was exactly what I am hoping mine is when it is all said and done. I like both the concept and inspiration, and am looking forward to the finished product.

**lolife99** · 09-01-2010, 07:56 AM

Subscribing as well.
Are you also using the PB trailing arm set-up on the rear, like your 'burb?

jmedero · 09-01-2010, 08:32 AM

What the heck I'm in.
I say put all the trim back on it. I love the way they look with all the trim.

duallyjams · 09-01-2010, 08:38 AM

That frame looks pretty clean.The media blaster person might get board.

I had no idea this was your rig. I like the before and after as well.
I really dig it with all the trim though. Can't wait to see the finished product.
You just saved me a bunch of reading.
Now I feel caught up...Thanks man!!!

TheDark1 · 09-01-2010, 09:31 AM

Hey Thanks for the link to Joel. I've been looking for someone to do a rendering for me. Good luck with the build, I'm in.

**ChiefRocka** · 09-01-2010, 10:02 AM

Sweet man ... It's gonna be SICK !!!

creep · 09-01-2010, 11:01 AM

Cool! Dropmember trucks are showing up more and more it seems, and I think half of them are Dino's. You guys work fast! I've been working on mine for about 9 months now and you will probably still finish before me.

Yes, I am using his front and rear setup and I have already installed his hood hindges as well, Truck is already painted and awaiting the frame so we can do a cut and buff. My goal is to have it on the street by January. Sorry no trim except for the cab B pillar trim.

DRTYRAT30 · 09-01-2010, 12:19 PM

Very cool, I'm glad to see all these 60-66 trucks getting some attention.

I'm with 64 short... POST! I'm living vicariously through you while my truck is stuck in storage while I move...

JUST kidding, but I am looking fwd to some new progress pics, love the truck.

Looking at your concept pic, what is your planned color? One of my favorites is any shade of root beer, especially with flake... Just in case you're undecided and wanted to paint it a color that I like! Ha.

Great looking truck, and thanks for posting.
