    As I recall, maybe something with the bed? I had a friend in HS that I sold a ‘56/7 tail gate to for his 55-1. I didn’t think it would work, but he knew better I guess

    If I was to build one for myself I would build a 47, they didn't have the fuel tank in the cab. ;)

    I’m just down the street from you in Knox Indiana. I’m surprised you don’t have one in your vette!

    My house is built into a hill, does that still make me a hillbilly?

    Guess I'm not a hillbilly, must be a northerner redneck. Rt 30 is 30 miles south of me.
    A gun rack would have to be a head rest in my truck. I don't even own a gun rack, you can call home and ask my wife.
    Trucks shouldn't have white wall tires, especially wide white walls, they just look wrong.
