The valve covers look good! Bet you'll have some fun with that horn.

creep · 07-09-2013, 02:48 PM

Thanks. Now that I know how to post vids I'll get a better one of the horn.

Bomp · 07-09-2013, 09:32 PM

Like the horn.
Like the truck even better.

Got back from GoodGuys in Columbus yesterday so I thought I'd post a few pics.

Some of my truck...

Some other 60-66's (there were a lot there, these are just the ones I remembered to take pictures of)...

Other cars and trucks from the show and motel parking lots...

I seen this truck all weekend long and then when I got home and went out to dinner it was sitting in the parking lot of the restaurant when I came out. This thing is killer...

Can you tell me more about this, custom ordered or did you make it?

Any pictures of you wheels mocked up on your truck?

Thanks.

creep · 01-31-2014, 10:39 AM

I made the Hot Wheels replica from 2 '62 Chevys and a GMC panel truck. The card is just a photoshop job I did on my computer. Here's a thread about how I did it.

Here's the best pic of the one of the wheels during the test fit.

Here's a vid of me starting the truck and pulling it into my storage unit. I shot this to see what the new horn sounded like from a distance.

The wheels are gonna look sweet. You gonna run a different center cap or sticking with those? The truck looks & sounds great in the video as well.

I bet you can't wait to get it out of storage!

Jmorales3181 · 07-15-2013, 06:18 PM

I'm going to try using the center caps I have on my truck now. Hopefully they'll work since they are held on by the lug nut covers.

Nice pics, thanks for sharing! Hope you got some good attention with yours.

That last truck playing off the SSR look is pretty neat. I had to Google some pics to make sure that's what I thought it was mimicking. Looks like it has the door handles, wheels, headlights, & grille bar.

Yeah, I thought it was a pretty cool idea seeing as how the SSR was modeled after tthat body style. At first glance I wondered how someone was able to sneak a modern car in untill I realized what it really was.

likaroc13 · 10-29-2013, 07:07 PM

How long did it take to get your wheels, & can you give me an idea of pricing? You can PM. I didn't notice anything on their website. Guess you have to contact them directly. I like these, but I also like the "Delmo specials" too.

johnlq6975 · 11-01-2013, 12:10 AM

What rear end did you chose

I think it took a couple of months to get 'em and they cost about $220 a wheel + $25 each for the powdercoat.

Not sure what your referring to but I am using a ************* rear suspension set up with what I think is a Chevelle axle redrilled to 5x5" bolt pattern.

Apparently I can't tell you who's rear system I'm using even if I'm answering a question and not flat out advertising for them. That's whack.
