NOTE: The giant Valentines Day card in the background kinda matches my truck right now! That reminds me....
Like how you used the 57 wheelwell looks sharp. I was never a fan of the 60's bed

Cool truck for a daily driver. I had a 63 also, but it wasnt a unibody and I had mine slammed. I like your paint scheme too. Good job. Not too much, just right.

Default question for ya
my first car was a 65f100 always loved that dove tail in the back of the cab.

i have a question though
i am trying to find a disc brake conversion that will also switch the bolt pattern over to 5 on 4.5; i am wanting to convert the 63 front axle on my toy-t. I have seen them but I can't find any suppliers. Do you have any suggestions

Can't really help you there. I do know my kit used a rotor from GM late 70's big cars - if that helps at all. Could you have the rotors re-drilled for the smaller bolt pattern?

Default '63 custom cab
My dad had a '63 . it was blue with HERBO on the doors . He put a Holman Moody 427 in it and raced it at the indoor drags in Chicago . My ma would take us to Pulaski school in it .
