Re: Cherubs 82 build

Very nice I like. I'm thinking about the very same wheels. Do you have the heavy duty brakes in the front? If so, any problems fitting the front wheel on? I have the heavy duty brakes and I'm wondering if they will fit on mine.

Thanks

Looks great Cherub! Those wheels really set it apart from the rest. Where did you get them?

Re: Cherubs 82 build

Truck looks awesome, I really like the tire combination. Are you swapping them out just because of the look or is there any issue with that particular size in the rear?

Re: Cherubs 82 build

Just read thru this string....beautiful truck! I agree with the earlier post regarding the flat wide stripe...combined with the color choice, stance, wheels/tires, and the sprinkle of chrome...very nice. Sounds like all you need is a Vintage Air system!
