Nice job on the caps..

chad64chevy · 11-16-2012, 09:56 PM

dbom, you got any more pictures of your gas filler neck and stuff?? how you plan on putting you gas in the gas tank?? i like the steel tube you used, what size is it?? your interior looks good too!!

dbomb53 · 11-18-2012, 07:17 PM

Thanks chad, the filler neck is originally of my 59 p/u. It worked out good because it had the vent tube. I fill it from the inside of the bed, drivers side behind the wheel, it sticks up about 5" above the floor. I'll post some more pics this week after i make a panel for it.

So nice!^^^

I love the caps, it really pulls the look together, whats the front and rear wheel and tire size? The back looks much meatier. I like the front look with the thinner sidewall. I am torn on ordering 18's or 20's I want a 18" or 20" white wall and the smoothie look in a plus size.

As soon as I seen the bed of your truck with the wood and the gas neck, I said to my self that's the truck I just seen at good guys.

11 pages takes some time to get through, but worth it Nice Build!

Sorry you didn't make to AZ, I really wanted to check out your truck. How did Sema go? Are you ready to give up the color on you truck yet

**67cheby** · 12-03-2012, 12:25 PM

dbomb53 · 12-07-2012, 11:44 PM

couple of pics of some engine hood props I put in. They are Locar brand, I had them sitting around from another project I didn't use on. They seem to work perfect with the wieght of the hood. They're mocked up right now. I'll be off for a couple weeks during Christmas, I'll be pulling the front clip off to roll the lips in the fenders and paint.

Excuse the mess under the hood, I've been driving it every day. These aren't gas struts, they twist and have 5 adjustments for height.

Dinos63 · 12-08-2012, 12:26 AM

hmmmm them are slick kat!!!

**67cheby** · 12-08-2012, 10:35 AM
