I rolled out the shortened frame with the cab on it so I could trial fit the bed & front end sheet metal. All I did was hang it on. Then I rolled in back in the shop & on the lift so I could make it all fit better, and make sure it all lined up. Like wheels where they belong i the middle of the wheel wells, also the cab to fender fit, and the 73 bed fitting with the 65 cab.

I almost forgot. I found (2) 7X15 Cragar wheels in really good condition for $150.00. I had some used tires that I installed on them. LOOKS REALLY GOOD.
