Thanks for the suggestion, it's actually a bit of an optical illusion. Looking at it from the front you can see there is tons of room. With the heat shield and the good inch to the bearing it will be fine.

Just got the new drop spindles in from No Limit ( thank you guys). So I got to finally put Ol Jackalope on the ground. Here is a sneak peek of the new shoes.

...what they said!

BShort · 10-18-2011, 05:31 PM

Wait, I know what happened! He went to get the rest of the lug nuts! There is only one in that picture.

In all seriousness Delmo, this truck is very nice and I can't wait to see the finished product. those are actually the wheels I decided for my truck, that is why I am dying to see it all together.

Delmo · 10-18-2011, 09:38 PM

Hahahaha, you guys are great.

BMERDOC · 10-18-2011, 09:53 PM

Dear God!!! I can't help it, the first thing I thought about was licking for some reason!

jasonhall · 10-18-2011, 10:11 PM

Another great looking ride!!!

BMERDOC · 10-18-2011, 10:14 PM

Whats left on the to do list?

chevyrestoguy · 10-18-2011, 10:30 PM

Don't change a thing....it's perfect.

Nice work, Delmo. I can't wait to see it at Dino's hoe-down next month.

**Dan in Pasadena** · 10-18-2011, 11:06 PM

(and No, "licking" something does NOT come to mind)

I was thinkin Salt Lick. Its beautiful. Funny how Patina is just as, if not more than, acceptible as a five figure paint job.

Delmo · 10-18-2011, 11:52 PM

Thanks so much guys. Ya I agree that sometimes nice patina is worth more than a nice paint job.
Exhaust, seat and an alignment. A few small things but she's almost ready for a shakedown.

Scottshotrods · 10-19-2011, 12:05 AM

looks good Del!!!!

hotrodrookie · 10-19-2011, 12:36 AM

Dinos63 · 10-19-2011, 12:58 AM
