Jcentsr6 · 08-19-2007, 05:46 PM

Here are some shots of my truck...Still working on it (as you can see its in the shop) I know the pictures are not great..but the lighting sucks in my shop. I installed ccp disc brakes. Foose wheels 18' ft 20'' rear. and some engine work in progress. I will post good pics later this week when everything is completed. Also..please dont be quick to judge without some better pics..I think it will turn out good.

blukangoo · 08-19-2007, 06:05 PM

Yeah, you are right, the pictures suck!

That truck looks great though!
Can´t wait to see better Pics.

Hey man that's one fine long wheel base...don't change a thing!!!

**lolife99** · 08-19-2007, 08:23 PM

VERY nice longbed! Whats the specs on the wheels and tires?

FRENCHBLUE72 · 08-19-2007, 08:28 PM

Love that truck and those wheels only make it better..

**special-K** · 08-19-2007, 08:39 PM

Man...whatchu talkin`bout?That truck looks fantastic.Bad photography can`t hurt that.This is unreal,I get on and the first two threads are from fellow little old Marylanders.I`ve been runnin`by Odenton on my way to work on a job in Annapolis I just finished yesterday.I saw a guy with a super sweet short`68 CST(white/blue int)at HD of Annapolis yesterday and told him about this site...know him by chance?He might have been from Annapolis,but I just thought he may have run across him.
What paint is on your CST?Sure looks good.

Longhorn Man · 08-19-2007, 08:50 PM

I'll be quick to judge... it looks sweet!

*Shane* · 08-19-2007, 09:27 PM

quick to judge? dude, that baby is sa-weet!

aventur1 · 08-19-2007, 09:32 PM

wow looks like them there tires barely fit! So I'll ask also whats the size, tires and rims?

frankdatank01 · 08-19-2007, 09:34 PM

The fact that you have your own shop is more than enough and the truck looks absolutely great.

Frizzle Fry · 08-19-2007, 09:43 PM

That cream/teal with woodgrain trim look so good together!

chevyboy55 · 08-19-2007, 09:57 PM

Nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jcentsr6 · 08-19-2007, 10:12 PM

Thanks guys...I work in annapolis by the way. Down the st from HD. Let me explain...Im the service manager at a mazda dealer (my shop

so I get to use it. lol

The wheel and tires specs::
18x8.5 front 255-50-18
20x10 rear 295-45-20

I used this web site as a tool to get the right size....I was scared to order them because I did not measure anything. I had 6 lug and changed over to 5 lug disc so I didnt know if wheels would fit. Talk about being worried! I saw Danny Ewing's (I think that how you spell it) truck and liked the 18-20 setup with bigger tires. I didnt think I would go for the big tire look---due to my past history of VW's with rubber bands for tires. (that was my thing prior) but I think I will like it when its completed. The tires just fit...I mean JUST FIT perfect. Thanks again.

Yea...sorry the mud flaps are history. As for as the exhaust...what do you think?

Something tucked up within the body so it's out of sight. I'm a fan of no exposed exhaust tips & free flowing but quiet mufflers (the wife/GF ususally appreciate the latter).

Jcentsr6- I was looking for your truck Saturday night at the Glen Burnie cruise but didn't see it!. My wife and I happened to be going past and stopped in for about an hour to BS with some of my buddies who were there. I was hoping to meet you. Your truck looks awesome by the way!

They have it sectioned off...but to the right of the auto parts store in main parking lot. I try to get there around 5-5:30 or so to get a good spot depending on the weather. ( I have only been with the truck once._)

Stoney · 08-20-2007, 08:59 AM

I like the stance.
Awesome

Stoney · 08-20-2007, 09:00 AM
