This has been quite the project! She still has a few issues, but she is nearing completion. My son and I have compared our truck to a really pretty girl who makes lots of weird noises and passes gas a lot!

Peace, Tyler

I really like your truck - it's beautiful

I love the ride height - what size tires and rims? What type of suspension?

I hope my 51 comes out as nice as yours.

Good Job

Dan

Very nice. Looks about like an old pickup should look.

Hey Dan, we have P235/75R15 tires. Our rims are 16". We have a mustang II front end with I think 4" drop spindles--I THINK. I'll post a pic of the spindles. Rear end is standard leaf springs. I'm not sure how to measure or give specs on that... :-/
And thanks for the kind words! Tyler
