    Truck is real clean. Strpping is wild! Tell the truth, when I first saw the finish on the fenders I thought the were bolt on repops. They need to tie in a little better, ie think move the paint break.

    Just my opinion. Great truck though, I would love to see the int and under the hood.

    these are all i have for now.
    The outline of the truck is
    -the cab is stretched 6"
    - 4" chop
    - hood pancaked 2ish"
    - bed shorted
    and the basic shaved any where we could
    mII front, big truck grill, ford vickie seat and a pontiac colum.
    and a lot of trial and error. wheels 15x8 front and 15x10 rear. and all oe sheet metal.

    the ower and builder is a member (rcktmn62) he just does not get on the computer much.but i am gonna make him see this. all of the positve feed back is much appreated...

    sickindustries.net is the best place to see the 65

    You didn't overdo it and make it look silly.

    Nice job of restraint- it's what makes the truck killer.
