Slick 60's

Greetings from rainy Oregon. My name is mike starck and I have a 1966 swb pickup. I bought the truck in 1998 and have been working on it since.The project evolved kinda backwards due to the fact I didn't know what I was doing and had no plan. Nevertheless it's basically done for now.I know it will "never be done" but i have another project going and trying to complete it soon.









Details of the truck are in my signature .thanks for looking and I look forward to following your builds and projects and maybe getting new ideas and part sources. Mike

from Michigan Sweet truck. You started out in a big way. Posting pics of a completed truck. I love it.

Welcome Mike...that is one good looking truck. I have relatives in Jefferson. Maybe sometime when I am visiting I can look you up and see that beauty up close.

You have found the most knowledgeable group of guys on these trucks. Without this group I would probably be driving a chebby powered Slick (sorry JC).

Again welcome and enjoy...

Well done, and welcome from Molalla.

Nice truck, it's my favorite color too!

im telling you.. this is the preetiest slick i have ever seen... from 1-10 i rate it a 12

Very nice truck, welcome to the slicks 60's.

Beautiful truck! Looks like you figured out pretty quick what you were doing. Welcome from Louisiana.

What can I say, I'm a sucker for pretty black trucks!! from Canada.

Man, what would you have done if you had a plan? Nicest truck I have seen in a while! Got any pics of the 4 link?

Welcome from the Portland, Oregon area. Looks like you done real good for not having a plan! Really like the "vintage look", especially under hood.

William, I do have a couple.Wish I would have taken more.The 4 link is a kit from NO LIMIT ENG.either weld in or bolt in ,I did both.removed all old suspension and brackets.welded all holes in frame.c notched frame above axle tube (were bump stop is).extended wheel base about 1" so tires fit in wheel well .Welded brackets to diff. housing then took to powder coat shop. Upgraded 9"with a trac loc posi and Dutchman 31 spline alloy axles w/ 5 on 4 1/2 bolt pattern.they drilled my brake drums to match.(no money left for disc brakes)






Ialso extended the wheelbase on the front 1 1/2" when I did the IFS.

Dude, if that was an un-planned project, I don't think we can stand to see the results of one you've thought thru.
Seriously, that is a beautiful truck.
JakDad. You paying attention?
