Oh my god, WHY!!!

Since you must, I would include the original wheels with the truck? Personally, I don't think many people would like the new current wheels you have on there...

Best of luck!

Yep, that is an option, I have steel rims for it, and I have different set of aluminum ones on my 63 that will fit it also.

As to why,,,,, "if Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy!" I had 5 trucks at one point and time, I/ME/I/Myself didn't see a problem with it,,,,

You can look at my gallery. I found the 66 but had to get rid of the 64. I like my trucks, but its just not the same sleeping next to them instead of my wife, lol.

I feel your pain,

One thing I have not done is buy her a truck and actually let her drive it. Hard enough to buy parts for mine as it is. Maybe some day I will get her a mustang though.

I attended a family reunion up north once and a husband and wife showed up in matching chevy novas or something (I'm not a chevy guy, duh).

I agree about the rims. If you like 'em, or can sell 'em better by themselves, take 'em off. At least in pictures, they stick out too much. I don't think they'll help the sale, but then I'm 40 - a 20 yr old may go for 'em.

While I agree with this, my old '64 actually seems to appreciate it when I tell her "you ain't that pretty now, but you're a good old girl...In time I will spend enough money to make you pretty".

Even if it were at all true, not many human girls will let you get away with that. Plus, my Ford don't mind when I loan her out to friends in exchange for beer.

New thread if not already done...why Fords are better than women...

Before you suggest it...yes, I am receiving "help" (hehe)
