Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
Your truck is looking awesome. I am most interested in the rear fenders. I am at the crossroad right now as to whether to widen the rear fenders or split the bed and widen it. I am leaning more towards the bed as it might be a little easier form me, but we'll see. I just set it on this past weekend for the first time to see how much and it looks like I am going to need about 5 inches total.

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
Good progress! Double check your front caliper pin depth. I have had a compatibility issue in that area before and different pin lengths are available. From the outside shot it looks like the pins are barely inside the non-threaded side of the caliper. This could be very dangerous. Maybe you just hadn't tightened the pins yet in that shot?

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
Nice truck, I like the widened fenders and big meats. And that motor!
