Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"

Nice find, Rene. You have had several 60 to 66 trucks but this one looks to be the one with the most potential. I really like the two tone. It gives the truck a classy look.....

Dude, you crack me up. You've had the truck all of TWO DAYS, and it's already back from the painter? HA! You don't waste no time! Looks good!

My wife says I'm the biggest procrastinator in the world, but when it comes to trucks I jump in with both feet!

About 150 miles south of you, I bought just south of Paso Robles in Templeton, but the previous owner bought it in Sonoma a year and a half ago.

Bryan, see you Friday or Saturday?

Thanks guys every sooooo much, I hope I don't disappoint! here's the latest updates....Now that the paints dry I reinstalled the grill and changed the tires, I originally wanted to polish the slots that I had but they where the wrong ones so I went with something else I had in stock, I think once the front is lower a little more it will really rock! Hope you guys like and comments (good or bad) are always welcome.

Dino, my good friend this last pic is for you!!!!

Hubpcaps yes! I just came back from the "Goodguys Show" in Pleasanton and scored on some re-chromed hubcaps that I think will look fantastic and tach and air pressure gauge cluster, once the caps get a little paint on them they will be mounted. (the caps are flawless, they just looked terrible in the pic)
