Yep- finished up the 8" today. Still have a little finish welding but basically done. The front gets cut next weekend. Then the frame.
It's getting there...

Vova · 10-20-2013, 10:22 PM

My 11 year old son loves to grind.

Vova · 10-21-2013, 01:03 AM

Did you get the axles OK?

Vova · 03-02-2014, 08:49 PM

Rear shot. Still need to pull out the passenger side tail light.

Vova · 03-02-2014, 08:56 PM

Put the Boss 338's back on. I need a little bigger tire on the front. Probably go with a 245-40-20.

tinydb84 · 03-05-2014, 03:19 AM

Looking good!

voxnor · 03-07-2014, 08:04 AM

Very cool build - you make it look so easy!

Do you know if that is the original paint? If so - 505 or 506? I don't see too many green ones and mine is about to see paint in a few months.

Looking forward to seeing more!

The cab is original paint. The bed was hit back in the 80s and he had it repainted. I can check the code this weekend for you.
