Well, the wheel and tire fairy came by and left a present under my pillow.
Everyone and their brother seems to run L-78/15 and 5.60/15 WWW's on their Radirs. I opted for something a little different (go figure) using the same combo that Japanese model A had on it. On the back, Coker BF Goodrich 900-15 Triple whitewall. There wasn't a matching tire for the front, so I opted for some 6.70-15 1 inch whitewalls. I thought the front needed some more meat since the 25 inch tall tires I had on there looked dinky next to the grille. We will see how well I did when I get the grille on there. I am pretty pleased with the result so far.

Plowboy,
I don't know if I ever mentioned it but that is one sweet little truck(?).
The odd ball whites were an excellent choice, wide whites wouldn't have been a good choice for the spacetruck.That wheel tire combo is just "Right".
Can't wait to see what you've done to the other end of it.

The lines in the firewall are courtesy of my home slice Abomber30 and his power bead roller. It actually had a recessed firewall that I took out. I just moved the cab back instead to give it a little longer wheelbase and more foot room inside.

That thing is really coming together. I can already see it in a bunch of magazines when you are finished.
What is the grill treatment that you are going to do on it?

hey been watching your build up and wanted to say your truck is coming out damn nice. I wasn't sure if I liked it at first but the finish details are really pulling the whole concept together nicely. Hope you can handle all the attention once its on the road. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

As unofficial HAMB 60 Buick guy, I officially protest the sacreligious act of making a truck look as good as a 60 Buick. If you let me have that vehicle, I'm willing to forgive and forget. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
