Re: Here we go!!!

just giving you a hard time Russ, you'd feel pretty stupid if you scuffed your wheels on maiden voyage. That sounds more like something I would do

I would leave it like it is and enjoy it. Don't have to worry about upkeep of the paint.

Re: Here we go!!!

I just went back through. Did you use the long bed sides that had been shortened or use a different bed? How hard was it to shorten the sides? I found an identical blue 68 long bed CST and I'm thinking of getting it and changing over to a short. I'm building a Porterbuilt frame now.
