I appreciate that. Prices going up is great for me and it's good to know that my truck changed at least one persons mind about long beds!

My advice is build it to make yourself happy! Sometimes the best advice is no advice. Once you start really diggin in to this truck you may change things as you go along. Get a plan together now before you start putting big money into it. Just make sure that you have a build thread going on so we can all enjoy your pain!! hahha I would like to say, think about how this truck is going to be used. Highway miles are alot easier with overdrive and that is one thing to really take into consideration.

So...remember these from a while back? I picked them up from the shop and decided to start playin with them. Stay tuned!

Cool!! Thanks for following along....and keeping up! The wheels need to see some sunshine, they have been locked away for a long time. Glad you found time to write a couple of lines on here, it's always good to have new peeps checkin out progress!

Slick67 · 06-25-2012, 09:29 PM

Here we go, sure I'll get a few comments on this. I painted the rallys to match my interior and will run them occasionally, but not all the time. I didn't paint all of them yet so the tire man can determined if he can get a tire on it without damaging the paint too bad.

I was always a big fan of rallys but then all those shiny custom wheels came along and they got pushed to the back of the garage. I'm looking forward to seeing how they look once you get them mounted. They do say "everything old is new again" whoever THEY are.
Hopefully your tire guy can pull it off with minimal damage.

They look really good on the truck, but painted to match with some wide tires on the back they should look great. And I agree....make something new again! Sure the truck will ride a little better too.

David67 · 06-25-2012, 10:25 PM

Dude!! I have a goooood feeling about those

Fattback · 06-26-2012, 03:17 AM

Clean look to them. Very nice.

They look good that color and should look really nice on the truck.

Great choice on the short 67 Camaro disc brake center caps.

It will change the whole look of the truck, but is that a bad thing?

They match the interior really well. I bought everything on Craigslist for I think $250 so I just got lucky with those centers being the correct year!

It absolutely needs something in the bed, it just isn't up to snuff with the rest of the truck. I'll be watching do your's and hope I can pick up some good advise along the way!

I really hope it turns out like what I have in my mind. Still have yet to determine how to cap the end by the tailgate, but I'll think of something. Any ideas from the peanut gallery would be appreciated!

Slick67 · 07-06-2012, 11:03 PM

I'VE GOT WOOD!!!!! 77chris went and picked up the wood we ordered today, thanks Chris! I was wanting a light wood, but white oak has a nice grain and is sturdy. I will polyeurethane it and buff it out to give it a nice shine. It looks like it will work with my paint, what do ya'll think??
