wow, the word "clean" doesn't do justice to your truck.

Thanks for posting the photos. Has the truck had any restoration work done or are we looking at a factory fresh truck?

the only way skirts look right for me is if they cover the back wheel all the way to the lip....of course that would require a radical lowering job...

Thanks for the lowering job. Skirts would look a lot more appropriate with the truck dropped. I'm afraid my photoshop skills don't go that far.

I'd suggest you call Mooneyes or Speedway and ask them that question... get the answer direct from the "horse's mouth" as they say.

The originals were not prone to coming off since they were attached directly to the wheel rims by screws. In the early days they were the only type of hubcaps or wheel discs allowed on race cars, since standard snap on caps or discs could fly off and cause injury to spectators. Many Bonneville racers used Moon racing discs because of the streamlining effect. The originals also did not have a hole for the valve stem, so checking tire pressure required removal of the disc.

Never versions are just like conventional wheel covers with gripping fingers that tear into the wheel paint, so they hold as well as any other type of that design. Some of the more inexpensive versions are made of stainless steel and are very heavy compared to real Moon racing discs which are made of aluminum.

Im not for shure it was on there when i got the truck.I dont know if im going to keep it on there.I traded an old dog kennell for the truck.Turned out the truck was stolen.I got luckey when i tracked down the original owner he didnt want it back so he filed for a loss title and transfered it to me.He is also going to sell me the stepside bed he got for it.

That’s an incredible happy ending. Most stolen truck stories don’t end so well for whoever acquired the vehicle. Nice of the guy to be so cooperative.

So who did you get the truck from? Nothing worse than a thief. Seems like somebody ought to be held accountable for steelling the dude's truck?

[richards72chevy]

My uncle got it from a coworker who stole it.He didnt tell my uncle it was stolen.Then i traded a dog kennell to my uncle for it.The original owner knew the guy who stole it off him.He didnt want to press charges against him!

[A.T. RockDriller]

Holy $hit......
It sure sounds like it was meant to be..
What a community.........That special needs truck sure did work it's way through hell to find ya'. You're hitched for life.
I like the dog kennel part too.
That's a great find. Can't wait to see what you do to it.
That might beat 'em all when it comes to " How did you find your truck..."
Ok.........I'll start the thread if someone in Administration will move
Richards'72's post to the top.............

New to the site but here is my 66. I just picked it up from Arkansas, spotted it on EBAY. It has a 283 with a 3 speed.

Just put dual exhaust and ww's on it yesterday. I need to start looking at drop options now. Great site, sure is no shortage of ideas and info here. Thanks

Shoot, MB........That's a beautiful truck.
Love the the way the white-walls look.....
