Just thought I would say hey to ya'll. Rebuilding a 64 SB Styleside from the ground up. I want to say thank you to Skipper and Tom for coming to the shop and giving me some technical advice. I have taken down to the frame, installed a Fatman Fab Mustang front end, put rear disk breaks, droped the rear end (springs under axle) and I think it is going to bump the frame. Also waiting to go in is a 302 330hp and AOD. Looking for suggestions on wheel and tire size.
My welding skills suck so that is going to take some work and I am a woodworker. So this trip is really a trip to get this baby going.
Well I have said hey to ya'll and good luck. Also Mid 70's for Saturday in the shop listening to the blues and wrenching.

Daryl.
I see you finally made it.
BTW, I plan to drop by in the morning to check your progress. Glad the spring bushings worked for you.
Guys, he's a real craftsman so I have high expectations for this truck.
His workmanship is great.
Welcome to the family Daryl.
