Looking good. I'm kinda stalled right now-too much work related junk keeping me busy. I gotta do like Denny and tell myself to take this job and shove it! thumbs_up

11/22 update

a lot done since the last update, I have the bed and 3 inch wider rear fenders on also the front fenders and hood. I also mocked up some wheels, theese are very similar to the Boyd smoothies I have ordered. looking like a truck again.

yes torq thrust are nice wheels I borrowed those off my 71 vette. I allways liked the boyds. it was a toss up when I ordered those for my vette so they were the logical choice, plus they can custom build them to your specs.

Oh.... they're 'borrowed' from your Vette thumbs_up

I thought you just had them kickin' around your garage! grin

Personally I had my eyes on these for mine but the $$ Exchange rate is dropping like a stone! I might have to reconsider. cry

Love your truck though,get some pics when the new 'hoops' arrive!

yes I know i am lucky to have the space. my shop for my projects is 22 x 36 and 13 feet tall because it was where I kept my offshore boat. seems like the more space you have the more projects you take on. thanks all for the compliments.
