Ole Red is back rollin'

Upgraded front brakes to disc, flipped the rear axle, new mastercylinder, lowered the front and now I need some pretty weather to put some miles on the new wide white walls. Hopefully, I got the picture upload figured out.

OK apparently not. Anyone have a "How to upload pics to a forum for dummies"?

Yea and the two pics prior to this one. I was gonna post a before and an after. How do I insert the pic rather than a link?

For pics it's best to load into photobucket. Then highlight the bottom code next press the control button & the letter c at the same time. go to your posting in Slick 60's and press control & the letter v at the same time, it will now show in your post.

good looking truck man. where'd you get the back wheels?

Reds Rod Shop · Post by **Reds Rod Shop** » December 18, 2009, 11:43 pm

Coker tire. They are 8" wide with the Firestone cheater slicks. I swapped out the rear axles and changed over to 5 on 4.5 lug pattern on the front and rear.

WOW! She's a beauty Red! The stance is perfect, IMO.

I'm going to forward that pic to a chebbie buddy of mine. I'm trying to get him to leave "the dark side," and something like that might do it for him!

I love the looks of the "old shop trucks". It looks perfect.

Great patina in the paint and love the wide whites and stance of your truck.

it's amazing what wheels and stance will do for the look of a truck.

Red, What car did you get the axles out of? How did you go 5-4.5 in the front? Nice ride! Thanks, Russ
