MOST PEOPLE DISAGREE WITH ME FOR CHOOSING THIS COLOR, BUT IM TRYING TO KEEP THIS TRUCK AS TRADITIONAL AS I CAN WITH THE OL SKOOL HOTRODDING WAYS SO ILL BE PAINTING IT A FLAT BLACK. ITS ACTUALLY CALLED SUEDE BLACK WICH IS AS CLOSE TO FLAT BLACK AS YOU CAN GO IN PAINT. MY BUDDY DAN WILL DO SOME PEN STRIPING ON THE HOOD AS WELL AS A LADY LUCK MURAL ON THE TAILGATE THAT IVE PANELED FLUSH. IVE ONLY SHAVED THE ANTENNA AND THE BEDS FENCE POSTS AND I WILL KEEP THE REST OF THE CHROME ON. I WILL ALSO POLISH THE CUSTOM CAB TRIM THAT GOES BETWEEN THE REAR OF THE DOOR AND THE BACK OF THE CAB. 66 KUSTOM
I think thats going to look sweet! Reminds me of that truck project old school in the mag Classic Trucks.
THANKS FOR THE COMPLAMENT. YA, IT WILL LOOK ALOT LIKE THAT ONE, THAT TRUCK WAS DONE UP BY EARLY CLASSICS FOR THE EDITOR OF THAT MAGAZINE. I USED THAT COMPANY FOR ALL MY LOWERING AND SUSPENSION PARTS. HOWS YOUR PROJECT GOING? 66 KUSTOM
Looks cool got a lot of character,black is good color.I bought another truck for my Son Matthew it was the parts truck but it looks than the first one This one dont have a motor or trans. yet.;-)
It's going, just doing a little at a time. Trying to figure what power steering box to use for my 61 4x4. I guess a newer one off of the chevy 4x4s, meaning anywhere from 73 - 87? I'll figure it out soon enough. 62 short step
My pitures didnt turn out very well but what I was trying to say is excellent job on your truck its coming along good it takes time in the end when you drive it down the road for the first time after its running it makes it worth it;-)
