Re: SANFORD build thread
Nice build!! One of my favorites, sorry to here about your back and good luck. Where did you buy your backend stuff from? Like notch, blocks, bag plates etc or did you fab everything?

Re: SANFORD build thread
Thanks everyone for the comments, Bigru I bought the blocks from Boris, his screen name is way 2 lo2. Street machinery in Ohio is his business. Everything else I fabbed up, I made my notches but porterbuilt makes them as well.

Re: SANFORD build thread
Hey JHRUSK, just discovered your build, awesome fabrication work! Would you happen to have any 15x8 6 lug wheels or even 16" left over from your build? I too live in central Georgia thanks Mike.

Re: SANFORD build thread
Not much going on with the truck, bed is at paint shop. I'm not sure on the tires rubbing, it will probably depend on wheel offset and how low u go.

Re: SANFORD build thread

Re: SANFORD build thread
Thanks guys. It has been a long time coming. Flips72 I chose victory red because of how well yours looked. The truck was originally red so I wanted to keep it somewhat factory. Painter told me the first of Nov. on the cab and doors and Christmas on the rest so I am hopeful by next spring I will have it on the road.

Re: SANFORD build thread
Been a while since I updated. Truck ended up in paint jail so I went and got it in March. The guy did a good job on they bed but would not work on the rest of it so I put up a make shift booth in my shop and painted it myself. I'm going to do the hood and fenders this weekend. I hope to have it pretty close to being finished by the end of the year. [quote][attach]1560173

Re: SANFORD build thread
Glad you got it back and glad you can finish the job yourself. Why didn't the shop finish what they started?
