May be selling the frame and suspension out from under 66 dibella. Mario Novelli and I are thinking about building a custom frame for the truck. Might try to go after the goodguys truck of the yr. Not sure I have not decided on this yet.

So what I did was I bought knock offs from american past times and I cut the threaded piece of the bock of the knock off. Then we milled billet adapters and tig welded them to the threaded piece off the original to the adapter. Then we welded the adapter to the wheel. It will cost every bit of 600 to 1000 to do this mod. 600 if you know someone to do the the machine work 1000 if you dont.

jmedero · 05-10-2011, 01:12 PM

Nice. That's hard core, welding it to the wheel. Thanks man for the info.

No I have been focusing my efforts on my 1940 ford. I really want this car finished as I have had it the longest and the car is worth a lot of money finished. Much more then the truck. So I will be finishing the car first
