Re: inmew can i get some feedback on my truck
I like it..... it looks better with the stock wheels... I would give the old wheels a nice paint job and bedliner the inside of the bed and call it done

Re: inmew can i get some feedback on my truck
Welcome to the board from Southeast Missouri.
Great looking truck. Really like the stance. The tire and rim combo are up to the individual and what the truck is used for. I am more into steelies and ralleys with trim rings and centers with at lot more tire since my trucks are often driven on non-paved roads. Heck at times I just drive off the roads out into fields and wooded areas. Enjoy your ride and have fun. Danny

Re: inmew can i get some feedback on my truck
I like it with the new wheels!
When I first started looking at your pics, I thought to myself, "I wish I had one of those trucks." After a few moments, I remebered I have one all apart in my backyard.

Re: inmew can i get some feedback on my truck
Nice truck! Sucks about your engine but at least now you know exactly what's under the hood. Do you know the name of the color? That's close to what I'd like to paint mine.

Re: inmew can i get some feedback on my truck
I like it!
The wheels are just fine to me. Do something in the bed, like a liner or something and you are all set.

Re: inmew can i get some feedback on my truck
Great looking truck. I have 22 inch wheels on my 69. And I am 64 years old. My son bought the wheels. I am going to give him the truck when I am tired of it.

Re: inmew can i get some feedback on my truck
Great looking truck with either set of wheels.
My 67 has chrome 20's for the good months and 15" steelies for the winter months. I just get a thumbs up from 2 different crowds.

Re: inmew can i get some feedback on my truck
Absolutely love the duct tape on the heater box! We use duct tape for everything down in these parts.
 Very nice looking truck! Love the new wheels, I think they look very good on the truck. Adds a very unique look. Definitely keep us updated on the progress. Welcome to the world's best truck board.

Re: inmew can i get some feedback on my truck
Like the truck and the color....You might wanna plug that hole in the passenger valve cover with a breather element. Keeps things outta your engine. Just trying to help out. Welcome aboard.....
