Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Junior,
That looks great. What are you running for a suspension? It looks lower than stock. What is that awesome steering wheel out of? And where did you score that cover for the tread of the spare tire?

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

If it steers, brakes & moves forward I'd drive the sh@t out of it!! Paint can always come later.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

You've come this far and its looking nice and straight. I say lay some paint on it. Winter is close so you will have a few months to do all the prep work and get the color on there before the nice driving season comes. If you are willing to do the work don't put it off.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

I'm just trying to solve all the problems and make everything fit so I don't have to make too many changes.
Does anyone know where to get side mirrors like the ones in the old Lokar add on the black 57? I've seen them on other trucks, like the one of Roger Shelines 58 apache in custom classic trucks.
I want something big enough that I can see in traffic without too much trouble.
