Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
Looks like that poor thing has been there for a while. Talk about rode hard and put away wet. It looks like the front bumper might be the only part worth salvaging.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
Here's my old truck. The beat up orange pic is from when I owned it last year, and the green-gold is what my buddy turned it into. He also re-did the interior, when I had it, it had torn up black buckets and looked rough. Looks like I sent it to the right guy!
Getting a 66 longbed, SBW, with a 69 396/th400 now. Looking forward to being back in one of these trucks again!

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
No shame in your rendition hornet ... I like the worn, driven all the time look. Looks like all the hard work was already done to me.
Good luck on the new project. Ratty 46 |

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
Yeah, I liked it too, but it needed some help, and I couldn't come up with the time nor the ambition to do what was needed. All the credit goes to Sick Industries for the original build and my buddy for the recent refresh and reimagining. I was just the caretaker who owned and drove it in between 2 talented dudes.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
Great perspective, hornet..........
We, as owners, try to make sure that any work that we do (or have done to) our trucks is permanent......repaired correctly, to stand the test of time. Since I've been told "ya can't take it with you"......I suppose we are just "stewards" or caretakers. The folks who own these in the future that will appreciate the quality work as much as we do. I'm pretty dang grateful that my trucks P.O. took care of it like he did.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
A.T. Rockdriller I agree with you 100%. I just wish people I take my trucks to for work I am unable to perform. Or don't feel 100% confident, I can do a 100% satisfactory job would simply take the exact same PRIDE about thier craftmanship. I am sick of this one local guy and I am about to pull the plug on a job he has been doing for me.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
I love the look of those trucks. what rim and tire combo are you running? i love the size of those WW's. not too big and not too small. kind of like a good sat. night at the bar.

I think they are just the standard 15x8 stock steel wheels. The tires are BF Goodrich 235/60 up front and 255/60 out back, i think. Used to be raised white letter tires that have been cut, the WW is maybe 1.5 inches. Wheels painted black with trim rings and bullet push through caps and bullet chrome lug nuts. But here's the truck I just got that I mentioned in my last post.
