New skins for the '71 -- went with 15's

After literally spending days looking over pics of similar trucks (LWB , 2 tone,) and all manner of ride heights with 15's, 17's, 18's 20's etc

I threw up my hands and just went with 15's -- same size as the setup it replaced 15x8 TT 2's with 275/60's replacing Am Racing Outlaws with same size

my local Tire shop had to special order the tires and the wheels came from Tire Rack ---- but here's hoping i drive this one enough that the tires dont age out before they get some use

The fresh appearance has kind of re-kindled my interest and i have made a squawk list to start fixing things as we head into a cooler fall driving season . (AC is a big squawk keeping summer driving pretty limited ) ---








Old pic - not bad and in keeping with my 80's/early 90's aesthetic, but it sat so long the tires flat spotted
