Nice find. That is sort of like a time capsule, isn't it. Sure is clean and straight. They really still are out there, huh?

Nice lineup in the driveway too. But I find I get into trouble with da Boss when she sees all my trucks together. "We've got too much old junk around here!" is what I hear.

Sorta why I NEVER let her peek into the gun safe!

Next restoration I do would be a dream to find something like this. Just pull things off, clean, put back on, drive.

Very clean, looks like a heavy duty 1/2 ton. My trained eye says it has 2 piece 15" innie rims, mid 50's caps and 7.00-15 tires.

Great find!

Looks like the same color as my truck. I'd love to know the color code.

So you take the hub caps off and polish them.
