model a rpu pics needed

[speedypete]

Hey all, im havin a bit of trouble finding any good model A RPU pics, so any help there would be much appreciated. Im lookin for some pics of channeled vs. non channeled.

Oh yeah, i havent posted an intro cuz i dont know where im s'posed to. So for those who want to know, Im from Victoria B.C., Canada, im 19 years old, and i own a 61 belair,a 67 gmc (parts truck/for sale) and am starting a buildup of a model a rpu, hence the need for the pics. I dunno what else you guys would want to know so ill leave it at that.
Thanks
Pete

hit the search button at the top of the thread. Look for the open house an Pinkee's thread. Wicked RPU there. Also look at carnut site pick a year and start thumbing thro pics.

Also intro goes on main board. Same one you just posted this in.

Feel free to carry on posting and learning.

Now lets see if I can find a cool RPU for you. I have tons of pics of them. I want to build one real bad but something always seems to get in my way.

bad ass

[speedypete]

Right on....These are all great pics (keep em coming!) Another thing i thaught i should add is im also looking for pics of shortened vs. stock box. Any help/comments are also welcome. I want to build up something that I can actually drive, not just something that looks cool in a parking lot. I really like the channeled look but i keep on hearing that ill be pickin bugs outta my teeth,and the cops around here have this thing for giving me large tickets and V.I.'s, so i dunno how well it would go with them. hehe... Any suggestions?

[speedypete]

got any pics of that last one from the side?

Maybe think of "Z"ing (did I say that right?) the frame, I did on my 29 truck to save all the room inside I could.
Got it down there pretty low with the stock 48 axle.
Put a 3 inch Z in the front (see pic) instead of a channel.

Petejoe that orange one is so right on. The back of the 30-31s is so much nicer looking. Pardon me for stepping on toes but the back of the cab on the 28-29 looks like something a hilbilly hacked off to make a pickup out of something else. I still like them tho.

[speedypete]

Hellbilly...Got any more pics of it?
