Had the camera guy from Hotrodding American style talk to me about my truck but he didn't make the choice on who to film... Oh well! First real show of the season and had almost 200 cars in Herrington ks! Can't wait till the next show!!! Finally can enjoy my truck and not have to work on it...

shortbed70 · 04-30-2014, 09:32 PM

And my future hotrodder!!!!

Glad you're getting to enjoy the truck. Can't wait till mine comes back out of "hibernation." Going to a show last weekend really made me miss it.

Jeff La · 05-01-2014, 09:10 AM

That future hot rodder just stole your truck, they always get away with it. LOL

**TJ's Chevy** · 05-01-2014, 10:44 AM

Truck is sweet! And looks like the future hotrodder is right at home!

shortbed70 · 06-02-2014, 12:44 PM

Ok guys need some opinions. Should I;
A- stick with 6 lug and buy disc or the front end
B- swap to 82-84 5 lug cradle and rearend...
Don't know the gears yet just know I can get the stuff cheap!!!
Second question is how different is the width of the rear compared to a late 64 rear??
Thanks

shortbed70 · 06-15-2014, 12:12 AM

Interior is in the process.... I went to a show today and rolled up to it with my first candy paintjob 57 Chevy from a few years ago and the drive went great... We get there and park and it's hot but we muster through the day. I also painted a diplomat or a guy who's dad died two weeks before today and even though I didn't win anything with my truck... Got sunburned pretty good... But the diplomat (retired cop car) placed in top 25 and the 57 parked next to my junk won best of show!!!! I think I won alittle bit... So excited I had to post.. Thanks to all the people that have watched my build, commented on my posts and helped me through a lot of issues.. Happy fathers day to all the dad's out there.

shortbed70 · 06-15-2014, 12:15 AM
