Thanks for the opinions guys, youre awesome. I miss having a truck since I sold my '50 a couple years back. I used to drive the shoebox every day,...
well, it's the inner rocker/step late area inside the doors. and the front fenders are glass too.
I found out the truck has glass fenders (yuck) and has diamond tread aluminum over the running boards which means they are gone underneith im sure.
kinda like a 'word' only without the 'd' on the end.:cool:
replace the worl 'cool' with the word 'trendy' now do you understand?. That'll be $20 for the picture I drew for you.

I baked my own cookies, but I burned 'em. Hey, at least I shared 'em with everybody!:D

I've been into period correct years before it was cool, and will be long after it's not cool anymore. So hop in your rat rod, comb some grease in...

Pre registered cars is a damn good idea, thats awesome! I don't care if I don't get in, as long as HAMB stays HAMB. There are plenty of other...

I went to the drags this weekend only to be horrified by pro street turds, cars with boat trailer wheels, white letter tires and bucket seats,...
you can achieve the same result with a bead roller a lot easier with the right dies. Unless the panel is just too large.
24 here, 57 Chevy hardtop, '50 shoebox, have owned/daily driven/built countless other old cars on a no money budget.
coker sucks, they use compunds that are too soft. Try Remington, or Goodyear
