project midnight

[derbydad276]

here are some pics of my new project a 1967 f100 long bed that I am calling project midnight
going to be a family project to show my son a little bit of how cars work
plans in the comming months include lowering painting flat black for the rat rod look
adding newer seats to the interior and all around clean and shine
it has a 4.9 L 300 six banger which is perfect good on gas and not fast so I can let my kids drive without worrying about them speeding tickets

Cool project. If it was a stick shift it would be even sweeter!

Cool! Have fun with it! I worked on a 66' Chevy pick-up with my dad when I was a teen. Truck was so clean we stripped it with razorblades. Got it in primer and ran out of $$ so had to sell it. But it was fun working with dad. Enjoy it!

Some 93-95 lightning wheels would look cool on there, or even some 99+ 18inch lightning wheels would be sweet!

93 to 95 wheels fit 99 and up wont

but can use dodge after 2003 20 inch rims

The ram 20's look sweet on these trucks too. Why won't the 99+ lightning wheels fit? Bolt circle a little different?

 

[Justindwright]

If you are referring to the bolt pattern being different for the 99+ L wheels, you are correct, but the holes can be drilled out to a larger size to bolt up on the older trucks... Not sure if they would fit how they are designed on your older truck. (Hubcentric) I sold a set of 99 L wheels that were on my 93 lightning, just had to drill them out with an 11/16ths drill bit I believe it was.

thx yea I have a old neoghbor that owns a polishing and buffing shop im gonna ask him how to make the look like chrome

and Im looking for some larger tires for te rear I have 235/70's now

 

[Justindwright]

something else that might be cheap and may look good is moving the front bumper in closer to the truck.
