59 f100 progress

Well...I'm slowly getting a few things done.
Heres the white wheels and now the red wheels.
I will pick up the 46 ford center caps in Decatur this next weekend.
Whaddya think...???

 

Looks killer.

 

thanks 53

 

Looks tight!!

 

Looks Great,what size tires are You running?

 

Thank gafridge
215 75 r 15 front
225 70 r 15 rear
I will likely go to wide whites soon, and I plan to run 195 front and 235 rear.

 

Looks a lot better with the diffrent color rims. Nice truck I like the paint too has nice flow.

 

I like it. I have been eyeing those for a long time. Whats next up?

 

Thanks guys. I'll get the caps this weekend. The next step is cover the existing seat , which is perfect , but I'll do c cream color with redpiping, a new mat, then put on the new exhaust manifolds and the duals . I plan to take it to the Goodguys show in fort worth next month and just enjoy the show.

 

Might be able to sell that perfect seat to someone and pay for a redo on another. just a thought.

 

Nice truck! looks great.

 

looks bitchin on the whites!

 

Great stance!!!

 

Thanks guys. I appreciate your comments.
I did get to the swap meet in Decatur Tx this weekend and picked up the stainless 48 center caps. I also sold my 64 f100 in a matter of hours.
I guess I was too cheap huh....lol

 

Looks sharp!. You should tuck the front bumper. It really suits the truck well. If I could have gotten my 58 longbed to look that good I would have left it a long bed

 

Truck looks really good now. and Matt, did you ever post pics of it as a shortbed??

 

Thanks again. In fact.... that is in the plan.
Do you just cut off 2 inches...drill new holes and bolt it back on ?
Or, is there some fab work to do to the bumper or the frame horns ?

 

I think the red wheels are crying out for wide whites. Cool truck!

 

You just made me miss my fridge that much more.

 

I think the white wheels are better. Red is played.

 

Your truck looks great and the white walls will look really nice. I agree with the other here though why shorten the bed on it? It appears to be in good shape, much too nice to chop up.

 

the back tires are so small that they look lost in those wheel wells

 

yeah I agree on the rear tires.
I will address that very soon.

 

That is looking nice.

When I moved my bumper in, I just cut the frame and drilled new holes, now it is about an inch off the body. You can see it in post 18 here. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=483291

 

rad! the red looks good. but then again so does the white!

 

Love the stance, i think black wheels would look killer, red is kinda played out! Just my thoughts, very kool truck!
