Hey man sorry I missed your post... been tinkering away every few weekends. But this weekend made some notable progress.

It was a big deal for me to get the front tires mounted on the rebuilt front rims, My old man spent a lot of time filling and smoothing out the centers and also filling and creating a nice transition between the center and the outer rim...

We decided to give it a go and mount the tires at home sat, I had myself all worked up for a fight expecting it to be a day long battle. I was pleasantly surprised that it took maybe 5-10 min to get each one mounted.

That being said, I finally got to roll it out of the corner and get a good look at this creation. Plus we really needed to clean, spent 9 hours today cleaning the garage...

here you can see it staring down my dads 57.. i think it is intimidated.. haha

This one is aired up..

Must have been a treat to roll it out. Excellent proportions, like it came this way from the factory.

NICE! VERY NICE! I like this build and the attention to details. There is always something to see where ever you look on this truck.

Lucky you I found out that the rear gear in mine is a 5.86

Found some 3.73's and a carrier just need to get the cash together to get them

those 5.86's might not be much on the highway, but she ought to come outta the hole strong!!

 

[sawzall]

WOW!! CORPO you need to get that out on the street, I also live west of Chicago out by Elgin and I would love to see your truck flying down the road!
