It just looks like a single wheel to me... kinda funny lookin.
Another cool clip of it showing the duals...my buddy Simon got this clip of me (his diesel powered 51 Shoebox Ford is sitting outside in the video) as I was leaving the Podcast.

That too! Need to find one!
I think I've got a black one in decent shape that I probably wouldn't use for a long time. Shipping would probably a bit much but you're only a state away.

Yeah--but if you might use it someday, you'd probably want to keep it ;) The second you sell it, the perfect truck for it would fall into your lap that would need it!

Another one of those for the square as vs to the square. At least not "to" today.

Wasn't expecting this, but I saw it and had to jump. Eight hour round trip downstate and back, and $45 in "shipping", but still worth it.

It was a wonderful day for a road trip. Nice to get out with the Mrs and not it being an appointment or some such thing.

And a stop at the world famous Tillamook cheese factory for squeaky cheese and pepperoni sticks.

Those are fishing boats out doing what they do.

A fantastic day bringing home yet more work to do.

I have not done anything to my truck in MONTHS...at the body shop and the waiting is tough.
I keep telling myself its January in Indiana snow showers and 16 degrees. I just have to be patient because I wouldnt drive it fresh out of the body shop in this weather...
I know the feeling, mine was in the body shop for 7 months, but the wait was worth it.

I wanted a brown color but the 81 color was kinda flat and no sparkle. I found this color and it has enough pop/color flop . I am very pleased and anxious as hell.
But -5 degrees and anywhere from 3-12 inches of snow this weekend depending on which weather turd you listen to.
Its best its in the body shop

Put on an old step bumper, and changed the grille, new headlight bezels, park/turn signal housings, and wired in new sockets for those lights.

The passenger frame horn is tweaked on the front and we’re using some ingenuity to get the bumper and brushguard on it. I’ll have to address the frame a bit later when the Dana 60F is introduced to her. The bumper still has a little “snarl” about it but it’s on and doing its job.
