It is cool
Just a shame that it is another project that got dropped.
It is definitely a fixer upper

old site would not let me in.
Even had the nerve to call me a visitor canyou believe it

Problem with pictured mount is the wall thickness of the tubing. the torque of the motor pulls on the weld flexing the thinwall tubing. Over time it work hardens and breaks as pictured. You could copy the unit make a stiffer one or purchase a stronger one from a company like Chassis engineering. The...

Hey Ranger Thanks for the reply. Talked to a Guy at Goodguys Charlotte two years ago with what looked very similar to the one you got. but could not recall where he got it. Also posted this same Question on the dark side. Got a reply to check a web site(www.checkerpro.com) They are in Kentucky and a...

HEY Comet
I concur should there not be some penalty for contaminating the site with a picture of a brand X truck on the Holy Ground!

Hey Garbz Glad to hear your on the raod . But my slick has been down longer than that. Almost TWO decades . Bought it as a driver .Then decided fix it . Started, stopped and changed the project more times than I care to count . But the good news is the Slick is on the front burner . Must be finished...

Welcome 6stang5 Pretty new here my self But FBp is right on all counts. And Also Once a Slickster always a Slickster. Had mine tucked away for along time. Just could never bring myself to part with it. Now that it is closer to being finally finished. I find myself looking at other ones Isee for sale...

Hey Shawn I have some Questions. And give you some other things to think about. Are you planning on using the stock bolt pattern for your new wheels? Because wheel styles for the 5 on 5.5inch bolt circle tend to be rather limited. As they only fit Ford trucks and jeeps. Secondly are you planning on ...

You guys all make good points. 1) worked for a guy who painted used cars. you would be amazed at what you can filland hide with a gallon of plastic and a little paint. 2) unless you restore autos for a guy with an unlimited budget and he already owns the vehicle you won't make money at it. Lets face...

I hear you Comet That thought has crossed my mind as well. But the paint guy and my deadline for finally finishing this project so that I can go to shows and not have to ride shotgun is forcing me to look at all the options. My assistants have threatened me with bodily harm if it is not done for the...

The other possiblity is if you could find some old conveyer belting or tractor /loader tires as they have even ticker sidewalls than truck tires. Just some more food for thought.

Hey Ranger Thanks for the info would like to see the pics. Was it special order and how long did it take to get. Johnny Thanks also, but they make stepside only, and everything else is custom order. They think it would have to be two piece due to the weight.Also might require a small mortage to pay ...

Hey willy sounds similarto an old snow joke we have up here about moving from the city to ski country in ontario. orsnow belt as we canadians call it EH.
P.S. thanks for the heads up on this site!

Just joined old site to find out there's a new site i need to join. Now that that is out of the way does any one know if there is a solid flush mount bed cover available for a 64 style side six foot box. Only ones I have seen go over top of the bed rails and to me that ruins the perfect lines of a S...
