A little late, but here's my newest!...60' SWB - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

C/10 King · 04-16-2015, 05:07 PM

Again, I hope I'm not boring anybody, but this is what this great forum is all about!

In a coma since 1980 a buddy of mine turned me on to this sleeping non running pig-nose, with rust in the typical places other than super nice floors....I already cleaned it up some and to be truthful I probably won't do much more to it as we all know my track record that it will be probably going bye-bye soon and plus tomorrow I also have a cleaner 64' SWB coming in as well, anyway my granddaughters named this one Trugly (ugly-truck) right as soon as they saw it, I wonder why???

Boy, I love factory tinted glass!!!!! Enjoy-

oldtrux · 04-16-2015, 06:14 PM

TJ's Chevy · 04-16-2015, 09:23 PM

Man it ain't fair at all.

NEWFISHER · 04-17-2015, 01:05 AM

Trugly lol! Nice score Rene

**special-K** · 04-17-2015, 04:49 AM

I'm bored. Trugly, ay? They are learning the name thing pretty good. Coulda been named "Uck", be they can save that for a worse one. This one's not so ugly.

Monte's62 · 04-17-2015, 09:18 PM

Yes, I like it... a lot!!

duallyjams · 04-17-2015, 10:55 PM

You know what, I haven't really thought about that and I think I have a extra 63' grill around here somewhere.

westcoast5 · 04-21-2015, 12:42 AM

looking good!

**cericd** · 06-24-2015, 03:50 PM

Hey Rene, I follow you on Instagram and have been watching the progress on the Sea Hag. Are you running standard 15x6 steelies all around? Also, what brand and size tires are you you running on the Hag? I'm finding it tough to find a nice stock looking tire and those fit the bill perfectly.

Also, I've seen a few folks ask about the drop on the Sea Hag. Care to share the specs?

Hey Buddy, The Sea Hag....... yes stock wheels with the leftover tires that were on the pumpkin when I bought it,

the sizes are 225/75/15 in the front and 235/75/15 in the rear, the drop is I say it's 7/8, some people want to disagree so I say ......... in the rear 6 inch coil with 2 inch blocks and a whole much of coils cut in the front.......

whatever the drop is I think it looks real Kool!!!!!

Thanks!

**cericd** · 06-24-2015, 07:19 PM

I agree that it looks really kool. So it's a static drop? No air, what about a notch?

Any idea on the brand of tire?

Thanks again.
