No one tell him its been SIX MONTHS since he last posted to this thread.

Truck looks really nice, I like what you've done with it... but we need more frequent updates! Your truck would be called "done" by a lot of us here.

Have you considered giving it a wash with CLR and a Scotch Brite pad, then clearing it? You could clear it with rattle can satin and it'll hold fairly decent for awhile.

I'll check back in March 2014 to see your response!

Oh, PS: Did you custom order six lug Rally wheels from someone (who?) or did you modify the hubs some way to make it five lug? Enquiring minds (nosy people) want to know!

Re: Latest Project 1952 Chevy truck

Wow.. I can't sneak anything past you guys.. actually the truck was running a week later.. I just could not drive it cause the brakes didn't work and the tires were all flat... I ordered the rims from Summit, They are 6 lug truck rally rims.. They were on sale... They came with free chrome caps, no tax and no shipping.. That is the only was I could justify spending the extra money on the Hurst white walls..
