This is a 60 driver In picked up recently. Right now its a flathead six collumn shift 3 speed but eventually might wind up with a car 360 and 4 speed in a old duster I have sitting around.

so far its a used parts special . but i'm redoing those chevy brakes to mopar stuff . thinking 92-96 viper gts calipers on 74 dodge pickup rotors , these with be on 49-54 chevy spindles which the dropped tube axle has on it . i've been biulding this rig with used or cast off parts from other builds and swap meet buys , that front axle setup was in a 46 ford fastback that went another direction . headers were bad bends from a tube bender , and so on . so it goes to show it isn't bucks that builds a rod .

The stance looks like its going to be really low. Wish mine had the big back window like yours it really makes a difference seeing behind you. Got this whopping 230 (I think) power plant.

i do have a 56 big window cab , alot of cutting and stitching to put one in another cab . and your plan was to install a la motor right ?
 
Wow is all I can say. after looking through this thread there are some really cool trucks out there. The more I looked at the bigger my next garage needs to be. The first 2 pictures are of my truck in the early 80s and the last one is of the new truck.

My original '79 Dodge Power Wagon "Roundup Package" truck we purchased new in Nov. '78. Still wearing the original paint.

Beautiful! So much better than the ugly oversized crap made nowadays.
