I believe.... it never fails to work that way for me. Found all my stock 16" innie wheels for both my trucks that way. I was looking for something else and there they were. Not quite the same but almost.

welding up more holes on the 65. went and pulled a crap door out of storage for making roof panels for the 63.

Inside of the doors have holes that you can run a bolt thru...double nut it and you can turn the bolt to press against a 2x4 or other suitable scrap lumber to press against the copper, holding it in place. I used copper pipe, cut down the center and flatten...it will bend easily to the contour of t...

I might give that a try on the doors if I cant figure out a way to get a piece of copper to stay behind the hole or the brass punch. Thanks for that tip Ken. Finished the passanger side of the hood and did a hole in the front lip of the hood from a bug deflector screw that had rubbed a hole in the f...

Those steps must be a sore spot like the rear lower bed corners on the older styleside beds.

I got the rusted roof piece cut out on the passanger side and por15d the inner frame of the roof that I could thru the holes left from cutting the rust out of the roof. http://i1295.photobucket.com/albums/b630/HiBoy63/DSCN5124_zps4aa6c382.jpg http://i1295.photobucket.com/albums/b630/HiBoy63/DSCN5122...

Its still good......if you have a boat.

Started welding up the chrome holes and all previous holes in the doors and box by previous owners. http://i1295.photobucket.com/albums/b630/HiBoy63/DSCN5126_zps532222f0.jpg http://i1295.photobucket.com/albums/b630/HiBoy63/DSCN5125_zps92bc8dec.jpg Ill be posting more of these as I go. Im finding the...

I the looks of your 4x4 Anthony keep up the great work.

I finished up the welding of some chrome trim holes that I started to fill in on the 65 yesterday. http://i1295.photobucket.com/albums/b630/HiBoy63/DSCN5126_zps532222f0.jpg http://i1295.photobucket.com/albums/b630/HiBoy63/DSCN5125_zps92bc8dec.jpg Cut out the rusted cab roof over the passanger side a...

Its looking good lots of work but worth it.

Yes that is the stock factory bumper that would have come with this styleside bed. Just so you know the bumper brackets used on the flairside box will work with this bumper on the older styleside bed. You have to drill a new hole for the front bolt but other wise they are the same. In the aftermarke...

looks a little better in day light. I think Ill re paint it in a flat white color it will probably hide the dents and dings that I couldnt pound out. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8389/8598637063_9f599f774a_b.jpg DSCN5112 by HiBoy63-65 , on Flickr http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8371/8598636029_c58fb9...

just took a few after I pulled the radio back out. I used the outside mounting bracket to drill new holes to mount the radio. Dash with the new mounting holes drilled. I went to mount the radio and found I had forgotten the center hole for the dial light. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8097/859863743...

Here is a 59 box there is no brace at the rear of the wheel well opening. Its hard to see in this pic. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7002/6415737745_bda63ba8d7_b.jpg DSCN4607 by HiBoy63-65 , on Flickr Here is a 63 box the only difference I can see between the two is that the earlier box did not have...

Thanks Dan yeah I didnt show it. It was getting late so I got in a hurry and didnt show it but if you have the mounting bracket for the radio you can use it to locate and drill the holes for the radio. Yes there is a center hole for the dial lite and the two control shafts that come thru the dash th...

must be real estate agents.............their moto...........buy low......sell high

Bumper installed

It looks like a $5 bumper. It doesnt look like I did much to it. Hey that bumper metal is hard to pound out.

Installed the $5 Old Ford V8 swap meet rear bumper. Like I said its a 20footer. Darn bumper metal is hard to pound out.

Look at dad&zachs pics in his profile. That looks like a 223 carb linkage.
