Nice ride! I just picked up a 63 and Im tossing around ideas as of what to do. I like it slammed but I'm sure the bed has to be raised too much for my liking. Any idea how high I'd have to raise the bed floor. I like what you did with it and I might be following along. Hope to see you at the goodguys in Pleasanton in August.

DRTYRAT30 · 06-11-2011, 05:29 PM

Well this isnt about my truck but i had to share. Went to the Mooneyes shop and took some pictures.

DRTYRAT30 · 06-11-2011, 05:31 PM

This is the part where they make all the spun bullets, caps & tanks ect...

Looks like an awesome place,wish I was closer..

coulter · 06-11-2011, 06:04 PM

i could walk around in that shop all day looking at stuff!!! so cool

DRTYRAT30 · 06-11-2011, 07:12 PM

The paint on the truck is just the original that was on it and the panel was just spay can and scuff pad, just messing around in the garage. The color i think im going is Alien green from the Kia Soul cars with a Flat satin Clear coat over it.

I just stopped by the shop when i was down that way this last week and got to talking and the guys showed me around. Very cool people there.

I also stopped by the Orange Truck and Car Shop parts store. Those guys suck, horrible customer service in my opinon. I didnt buy anything then and won't in the future...

Thanks, Jesse

Man.. I have been there like 5 times in the past year. Those guys are the biggest kooks. Its like you have to know exactly what you want and the the number of the product. If you don't, its like taking their birthday away. Soup Nazi! I always forget something too cause I am so rushed. They do have a lot of goodies though..

For sure, total soup nazi's.... I tried to snap a couple pics and they freaked out and yelled no photos of the inside showroom....Lame

I had a big order to place, and then said no thanks.

Thanks for sharing the Moon shop photos. I'll bet your daughter will remember sitting in that dragster for the rest of her life. The smile says it all.
