Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
Score!!!!!!!! I received a phone call yesterday asking if I had a nice 67-72 fleetside tailgate and if I was interested in a trade for a set of early 60's sail panels the kind with the paint divider in the middle, I hesitated for a second trying to keep my composure and excitement down telling him in a calm voice that I had a super nice tailgate in my slash( not disclosing that I had only 50 bucks into the gate) and I guess we could trade if he really needed it, lo and behold he just brought them over, just a little cleaning and they'll be good to go on the Pumpkin.

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
No new progress, other than driving the wheels off of it but I'm going to be picking up some new bumpers and side moldings, plus hopefully it will be having a new lower stance and power disc brakes soon.
Boy! I could see myself in that one, after I hacksawed the small back window, added a little white paint and swapped the grill to a 63' grill. all kidding aside this one is nice!

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
Well, I few updates have been made to the pumpkin here recently, like new chrome bumpers and a new stance (thanks to "Kev's Classic's") a 4.5" drop in the front with dropped spindles plus a disc brakes conversion kit and a 5" drop in the back, I also have a set of new Mar K moldings ready to go on as soon as my body guy recovers from his knee surgery......But, I can't post any pics till they fix the server here (which I'm sure will be soon )
So I'll post this myself, till I can get some photos posted.
