Very COOL truck!
What size wheels and tires up front?
(Also,... what size tires on those rear 24's?)

Yeah. Me, too.

jmuck, you are definitely a fine artist.

BTW, I'd be willing to bet that your rear wheels, alone, are worth more than my whole truck.

Thanks for the pics. Beautiful.

Re: My project 68 with an LS1

I think it is scotts hot rods, that builds a piece for the rear crown of the cab that rolls it over and takes the crown out of it above the rear glass, it just looked like to me that you had done something there maybe not , did you just smooth that seam ?

Re: My project 68 with an LS1

I believe he is talking about a filler panel that takes out the seam at the back of the roof ..... pretty slick piece ... smooths the back of the cab up quite nicely

I think Nate Porter built the piece you are talking about.

Re: My project 68 with an LS1

Man, I keep looking over this thread. LS power, bagged, laying frame (with air in frame), roll down back window, shaved, crazy wide rear rollers....it's like you were reading my mind. I will eventually do a similar build but it will be sweet to see it done before
