Hello to all from Tucson...near the surface of the sun!
Here's my 66 LWB after a year and a half off the road. |

Re: New member, first post
Welcome and great looking truck. Looks like you've put quite a bit of work into it already. What are your plans for the truck?

Re: New member, first post
Welcome, that has to be one of the cleanest under hood shots I have seen of a non restored truck in a very long time!
I also like the wheels!

Re: New member, first post
Pappy, I keep a couple extra sets of delete panels around at all times. That's one of the top items on the "scrounge at all costs" list.
I have 2 66 SWB steps and a 65 LWB Custom Cab that are next in line. Arizona is the Mecca of largely rust free trucks. I buy all of them I can afford... |

Nice truck!
I can't find any 6 lug steelies anywhere near me. You are lucky! Steven

There is a tire shop in a small town North and East of us, I go there about once a month to visit friends and always find a couple there. Not telling where!! My own little picking honey hole... I even found two different pairs of 8" steelies there, one pair with the center cap nubs and one pair without...still holding on to those... |

Nice!
We have the same taste. Crusty on the outside, shiny under the hood. |

But yes, I AM part of the parts shortage problem. I do share though! There are a few real rabid scroungers down here that I horse trade with regularly. If you need something, one of us either has it or knows where it is. |
