     That paint job really stands out, the 2 colors contrast each other very nicely.  Looks great.

#2: There is no such thing as impossible, it just takes longer.

while snapping these pictures (its first trip out all put together) a guy rolled up and eagerly asked if it was for sale.  My reply was only one word:  "Nope."

So after getting my dads shell out and put on, i thought I'd cruise CL for a cheap one for my rig.  Just to throw on for weekend trips.     Found a sweet Fiberglass cab-high Leer for only a few hundred...



Had to get a shot of both trucks together.

     Your family do have a nice set of trucks.

I love your wheels, could you tell me the details on the rims? Do you know who sells them?

They are original 70's slot mags.   I don't think anyone makes or sells them new.  My advice is to try Craigslist or online used wheel dealer ...  They're hard to come by, in a 9.75 X 16.5 X 8 lug.  So good luck
