Re: Irish's 1966 LWB Fleetside
And, she came with her high heels on. Those bad boys are 16" rims and I measured the tire to be ~30". She is now 3" lower both front and rear. :-)

Re: Irish's 1966 LWB Fleetside
A bit of background on this one....
My good friend Tommy, has been an integral part of getting and keeping our fleet going. He can build a carb blindfolded. He is old school NHRA and one of the coolest guys I've met. Anyways, he has the golden touch when it comes to carbs and motors and me and old skool decided it was time to build him a truck with a personal touch. Posted via Mobile Device
