New Purchase
After a lot of looking I scored this 68' at the Good Guys show, weekend before last. BBC, OD Trans, Vintage AC, etc.
I've seen it posted in some other show pics out here...I took it home that Saturday. Enjoying it quite a bit already!  The color is quite a bit lighter than what it looks like in these pics...cheap camera.

Re: New Purchase
Nice looking ride. There is a lot to be said about picking up a finished ride and being able to enjoy it from the get go.

Re: New Purchase
Thanks Everyone.
Front wheels are 18x8 with 255/45/18's, and rear are 20x9.5 with 295/45/20. I'm not sure that I like the staggered wheels, though. I'm considering bumping the fronts up to 20x8 with some 265 series rubber.

Re: New Purchase
That is one sweet truck! I saw it at the TMS GG's show...I like the rake look with the 18&20 on it.....didn't see a price tag on it so you must have persuaded the owner to depart from it...nice fine!
