Re: New to the forum

Hey I need some help. I have seen people have alloy wheels welded up and redrilled
To a different blot pattern. The problem is I did not ask where they had this done at and now I need help finding where I can have this done. I'm in Washington state so if you have any info on where I can have this done here that would be cool but I would be interested even if it is out of state. Thanks

It was a 69 long box now it is a 69 short box with a 396 and a 400 tranny and a 373 rear end. It has a tilt column am/fm radio the truck is factory aqua but now like most projects
It is still sitting in the shop with out the box on it and no front end on it but I hope this winter (like most other winters) I will get it on the road for next summer
