I had done a frame for an '86 that I used to have. I sold the chassis from it and bought this truck that I am working on now. The body from the chassis was pretty much totaled. This one is in a lot better shape in general. Some times I wish I would have kept it.

I am waiting on some brackets from the laser cutter and then I will get the crossmembers completed. Also checking out my options on rasing the bed floor.

Are you able to keep the saddle tanks with the PB 4 link?

Re: Monticello

NICE!^^^
I think those wheels go with the sharp square lines of the 81-87 trucks.
These pics really changed my mind about these wheels.

Yeah I really like these wheels on the 73-87 trucks. I am excited to get it on the ground so I can get a real idea of how it'll look.

You should get them. They are a great looking wheel and priced very reasonable.
