When I brought her home and now

I’m just wondering if the guy that punched the bed cover is out of the loony bin yet! I can’t even imagine how many hours standing at an unbelievably large press it must have taken to do all that work. Knowing one goof would ruin the whole thing. Very cool truck overall and nice job on the grille. It looks great, and different.

I'm going to take a guess and say that came off a cnc punch... Being the panels are flat. The Amada punch I used to program (former job), could knock that out in about 3min...(plus programming time)
If that was done by hand (old school).... Yeah, loony is right!!! looks nice either way

markeb01 · 11-22-2010, 04:25 PM

That makes more sense. Once again I've learned something new. I've never heard of a Amanda punch, but can see how better technology would be required for making things like computer cabinets with massive quantities of uniform ventilation louvers. Thanks for responding.

Just a guess, otherwise thats way to much work for this fat guy

66redw/white · 11-22-2010, 07:07 PM

i posted in here a couple pages back but i figured id do it again at the new height and new wheels.

Rob Fisher · 11-22-2010, 08:15 PM

Would you mind sharing some info on your wheels and tires.
What size wheels are they and what are they off of.
What size of tire are you running on them.
I have got stockers on my 64 GMC and I am a little nervous that they do not have bead locks.
Any thing that you can tell me is appreciated.
Thanks for your help.

66redw/white · 11-22-2010, 08:55 PM

the wheels i have on my truck are from a nissan titan. 8x18. i have 225/60s on them. took a good long time to bore the centers out for the hubs. that was the only set back for me. pickedem up for 80 bucks

Rob Fisher · 11-23-2010, 12:39 AM

Thanks very much for the info.
What offset are they.
Do you have to run any spacers.
Thanks again
