Mj-Styro Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 (edited) Yes i know its 1:30 in the am here and burning the midnight oil or the candle at both ends! I have been wanting to do this for some time and well nothing like the present! LOL. Long ways to go! Gona make this a ford dealership hauler.......dont know if they had these back then (late 70s) but thats what i am shooting for! phantom if you will.....or a they should have done it LOL Long ways to go yet but not bad for 3 hours worth of work and just wingin it! ( i tried apic and with out measuring at hand gona do my best) Or maybe weather the truck and make it a salvage hauler.......will be building it with the two stang lls .........

randx0 Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 looks like a fun build! I hope you can finish it before the 4 day weekend is over . I'd like to see more pics as it progresses.
Mj-Styro Posted November 28, 2008 Author Posted November 28, 2008 Got alittle more done yesterday after my turkey coma! suprisingly i didnt take a nap LOL...... And here it is almost 1.am in the morning.......... Took one of my 5 lug resin cast wagon wheel and turned it into a 8 lug wheel.........that took some time but i think i did them ok......far from perfect, but atleast i have them done (all 4 of them)
BigBlockLyle Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 Hey Mj, this thing is looking sweet. I showed it to my dad and he said that it looks correct to the period. Can't wait to see more. BTW, can I get a set of those 8 lug wagon wheels from you? Thanks Benjamin.
