Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
Mac,
It really does work. And another thing that works just as good is to show a teen age boy how to use the rubber bands and tool to castrate a young bull. ![]()

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
Those wheels are exactly what I want for my rig - to go with my T/A radials.
Always liked that look and seeing your new ones simply confirms the idea. Good stuff. ![]() Mac. ![]()

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
4D,
On painting the exhaust manifold I use eastwoods High Temp cast Iron Grey and am very pleased with it. We all know however, we will have to touch up after the first coat baks on, thats the nautre of the beast. I just finished up my 305 A V-6 last week and am trying to arrange a way to tow it to the muffler shop to have the duals put on. I was able to trade with a friend the 1957-1959 3 clip rims and will need to find a good home for the one I have on in the picture. See Picture

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
I don't know the back spacing of the chrome reverse wheels. I didn't measure before shipping them to David...sorry.
I sure like the way they look on your rig though. PS-thanks for your business and the compliments. Last edited by LILRED66; 01-21-2009 at 12:17 PM. |
