Re: My 63
I like everything about that truck except the c-notch in the rear.. it looks really weak and i seriously think that over time the weight of the bed bouncing around on that will cause stress cracks on that small tubing

otherwise badass build man!!

Re: My 63
That's a sick ride u got there! I'm doing pretty much the same thing u did. i've got a 63 cab and front end on a 70 frame. I'm wanting to know what color green u used and where u got it? I think that color will set my steelies off. BTW, maybe i'll c u at Pistons and paint in november. i don't know if i'll have the 63 done but i'm driving my 70 burb to it even though i can't put it in the show.
