Really nice truck! I'm diggin the yellow! I see you're debating on an engine to put in? Just a suggestion, but if you are going all out race I'd recommend a 377, destroked 400 with the 350 crank in it. Those bad boys like the revs! I was wondering if you wouldn't happen to know the width of the outside of your rear tires? I'm doing some big meats on the back of my '64 and want to get an idea of how wide I can actually go within my bedsides.
