Re: My 65 Pickemup project
Yeah it will. But what you have no bad ass painter can duplicate the finish. They can try but never exact.

Re: My 65 Pickemup project
I am also a Porterbuilt customer , I own a custom powdercoating job shop in Minnesota and see many fabricated parts on a daily basis. Nate's suspension parts are some of the highest quality fabrication I have seen . We will be starting a build thread hopefully this week. Delmo the truck rocks hope my long bed looks that well !!!

[QUOTE=Delmo;4242265]Some more.

Re: My 65 Pickemup project
Hmmm that was strange, they should be up now.
No it's friend of mine that works in motion picture. He designed and built the Black Pearl from Pirates of the Carribean. I kicked the frame in the back and put in some bags. Last edited by Delmo; 10-24-2010 at 02:14 PM. |

Re: My 65 Pickemup project
Jesse that car is awesome, I'm sure you hated to see it go. Great roof.
I think there is a pic at ride height on the other page. It airs up quite high but can't stand to take a pic of it. LOL |

Re: My 65 Pickemup project
That's bad@$$!
I took mine out to test my tranny cooler and when I parked it I realised I had been driving it around town with the front bumper about 3.5" from the ground. I only rubbed the fenders once on a hard turn out of the parts store parking lot. Gotta love these trucks!
