That's Keith's '34. I saw him Saturday and he said he was about to do an intro....well keith, where is it? He has some more great plans for the truck, but I won't steal his thunder.
thats a nice looking truck! what kind of hubcaps are those and do they mount by clipping into the inside center or on the outside?

[/ QUOTE ]The wheels look like Solids from www.Wheelvintiques.com. The hubcaps clip on from the inside. Stock Ford caps should fit too. I know what the taillights are! Can anyone else tell me what they are from? Nice truck, Dean
I saw that truck around a bunch last summer. He was shakin' it down after recent;y completing the build. Mike's pics are good, but don't really tell you how LOW this thing really is. Very cool truck.
Look at the 53 ford in the back ground of the first picture. That will give you an idea of how low it is. That is a cool *** truck Jerry
I finally did an intro on another post, so I guess it's ok to reply now? The taillights are '61 Corvair. I am going to try to get some other pics posted, but the files are all too big. I may need some help from you guys. Keith
Very nice! Keith, your cab appears to be a 33 with the stock firewall cut out or a 32 cab with the 33-34 rib across the top behind the visor added. I'd say a 33 cab. Here's my ratty ol' "Rocky33" from days gone by.

hey keith, hope you don't mind me posting those pics. man that thing is kool, you backed in right behind me, i waited a couple minutes for you guys to climb outta that thing so i could get a couple shots of the interior but you must have been stuck! LOL i'm glad i took the pics when i did because i did the tour of the lot and when i got back to your row, there you were...GONE! very nice ride man, mike
Mike, Not a problem posting the pictures. Between your post and Paul thats the reason I finally did my Intro. At least you got those pics up. I am still going through my software trying to find one that has image compressing so I can get my Intro completed. All my files are too big. I see your coupe at a lot of the same places I go. Real nice by the way! I'll try to bump into you next time I see it around. Will you be at Hyannis this Sunday? Keith
Hey Upchuck, The wheels are steelies and the caps are baby moons from Early Wheel. The wheels have 3 raised areas that the caps hold onto, but no clips. Rocky, Yea you hit it right on, the cab is a '33. Love your "ratty ol' 33". That's where I was origanlly going to go, but as you see went down a different path. Thanks all for the kind words. Keith
Man, I am soooo glad M***. p***ed that fenderless law a couple of years ago !!!!! Neat truck and welcome from the western end of the state.
CruZer - The other states I've been through haven't screwed with me yet either. I always hear the stories about the man, but knock on wood, he must like the truck! I will get some more pictures up once I can reduce the file size of the ones I have. Keith
Keith,I've had the same experience in Vermont,New Hampshire,Connecticut,New York and Pa. I had one state cop tell me that he was too busy watching out for the bad guys to bother with hotrodders with loud exhaust and bluedots.
hey keith, no i won't be down at hyannis, we were going to the star drive-in over on 79 in the taunton/lakeville area tonight but the weather is getting in the way, not looking good for that either. hope to see you again this summer though, and get a close-up look at that thing. again, great ride man. if you want to e-mail the pics to me at Thirtycoup@comcast.net, i'll set 'em up like the size that i posted for you and send 'em back to you, then you can post whatever you want, no sweat. mike
Mike, Maybe I'll see you at Star. I am usually there once or twice a month. They are talking rain tonight so we will see. Paul had said he may be going also. I played around resizing a picture to see if I have it. It should be an interior shot you were looking for. If it doesn't work, I may take you up on the offer so I can at least get my Intro post finished. Maybe I'll catch you tonight. Keith
now that's what i'm talkin about! that looks great keith, you did a great job on that whole package there, thanks for the pic. as for tonight, i just talked to JimV and we both agree that the weather is a little suspect for tonight so we just going to hang close to home and go the Blue Onion in woonsocket. but we will plan on star next week so i hope you can make it, look forward to meeting you. and any help you need with any pics, just send them my way and i'll take care of it. later man, mike
