If I lived near you, I'd be checkin that truck out too! I think your boy has good taste anyway. I hope he is interested in our beloved trucks. I sometimes wonder what will happen to my 6 oldies when im gone. Oh well, im only 35 so that should be a while yet. (I hope!)
BTW, do you happen to know the back spacing of your rear wheels? I'd like to have my wheels stick out more and like the look of yours. Here's my ride: (3.5 backspacing on all wheels)

That's weird, mine are Jeep wheels too! Probably from a 70's era Cherokee. Mine are 15X8 with a 3.5 backspace all around and as you can see in the pic, they don't stick out much.
I like the fronts where they are on mine but would like to get the backs to stick out a bit for that 1960's look. LOL Maybe I need a reverse style wheel. Better check the swap meets next year. Keep up the good work on that stepside!!!

cool pic! i have one of my youngest son on the step of my old 72 long step when he was about that age. My old truck was a driver/hauler(pretty rough), but the kid has always been pretty special. A couple more yrs & he will be driving.......Man where does the time go?

Hey Dusti,
Good looking kid and good looking truck. Reminds me of how I spend my Saturdays. Me working on my Longhorn and my 3 yr. old son spreading my tools out all over the yard. Enjoy em both!! Mario
