Thanks for the comments, im really liking your Panel Van, American Car/ Trucks have a huge following here in the UK and there are quite a lot of these trucks over here along with other current / Classic US cars an Trucks, My daily drive is a 2007 Mustang and my dad drives an F150 Harley Davidson 100th Anniversary and he also has a 1960 Cadillac Coupe De Ville and a Lincoln Town Car all of which have been imported by us from the USA.
Thanks

Nice truck and it looks good with those wheels on it. Haven't seen any like those.
Lots of stuff to see in London. I was there in 2002 and look forward to returning for a visit. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2011 Posts: 73 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2011 Posts: 73 | I would love to see some detailed engine pics Lewis.

I saw your truck over on the Rods'n'Sods forum,it's a beauty.
You and your family are obviously no strangers to American Iron.
This place is great for specific info and advice about these great old trucks.
I'll keep an eye out for you if I ever get to some of the southern shows.
There's also an International forum for 'us foreigners' if you ever want a chat!
See you around.

Thanks, The wheels are American Racing Ventura and do look good on the truck but I will be replacing in the near future as I really like the look of torque thrust II rims. Yes Central London is a beautiful city with lots to see and great history although I personally would like to live in the US.
