    Use the choice at the bottom of the page "Go advanced"
    It has an attachment setting once you get into it.

    Seems like you have done it.
    Nice pic's.
    You have a fine vehicle there and must be sure cheap on gas to boot.

    here is mine
    I need to get the thing out more, but every time I get it out something happens to it. Like backfired the carb and caught the engine on fire or chipping the paint..............
    I should have left the truck flat black??????

    These photos of Dean Lowe's RPU (except for the last one) are from the June 17, 1963 issue of Drag Sport Illustrated, a newspaper similiar to Drag News...

    I have a mesh insert, but I am in the midle of repaining some flaws:)
    I have had the roadster for halg of my life, andI am 28yrs old. A good frind of mine, my dad and I started build ing the truck when I was 14 from nothing. It was all hand formed from sheet metal and finished it when I was 17 drove the hell out of it and about 3 yrs ago I redone the truck and added paint and some chrome.
    thanks RC

    Many of you have seen this one, and know the history on it. Been in my family since '64 and I was a pup.
