Good looking truck...

I have a 51 that I'm working on...this is how it looked 4 months ago. It had the stock rear and a volare front end then. Now it has 4 link 9" c-notch and mustang II with air bags all around. Its torn apart now but It will look just like that when it goes back together....finally got the motor in it (SBC) this week and just need time to finish.

Patina rods are in!

Well we have sold the 66' and bought a 56' and started working on it then got a 54' then bought another 56'.

Past couple weeks we have the frame finished and got the irs setup on the rear finished

the front setup was suprisingly easy, cut the old k member out, drill two holes and it bolted right up on the 66'. The rear was a little bit more involved but wasnt that bad. we had planned on just doing a four link in the rear until i found a running mark viii on cl for $600 and we parted it out and just stole the irs off it.
