Re: FNG checking in
Welcome ! I like both of them, but really partial to the truck. The 20" wheels aren't so bad, at least they remined me of the old "500" series type. So they have a somewhat classic look about them.

Re: FNG checking in
thanks for the warm welcome guys. while i do miss the speed and handling and looks and speed of the Subaru i must admit the truck is more "tuner" friendly.
i do have a page on the projects and builds heading that i will update as i remember to to show the current state of the 63 Last edited by stealth_weapons; 01-03-2011 at 05:57 PM. |

Re: FNG checking in
welcome aboard, & thanks for your service
i really dig the '63 as well...just something about the character these old trucks exude....but i can appreciate the effort you put into your previous rides, & it sucks you had to get rid of them...on the other hand, i like both of the new rides better |
