I also leaned the radiator back on a 4* angle. It's half way between the 5* of the windshield and the 3* of the engine.
You can see it in the second pic

Hi Skip, only if you didn't see the first part of this thread
Main thing is the height of the truck and some realignment of body parts.

 

[CORPO]

I figured that's what happened. If I wasn't so lazy, I could have gone an looked myself. But I remembered the before and after without looking! I watched your whole wonderful re-bop with a big grin. It looks great!

Most of what Bruno said is right on the money. Sometime in '35, Dodge went away from suicide doors.
The only disagreement I have with Bruno is that there are some nice looking Dodge trucks in the late '60's.

I too like the Dodge trucks from the 60s..
Mines a long bed 64 sweptline...
Someday...... i would love to get it going..

My grandson has a 69 short step side that we put on an '89 Dodge chassis with a 318.

Very nice!

Thanks, I really like this ride too!!!!!!!!!

No offense taken
The headers were the first thing to go after I finished the truck. It now has sprint car style headers on it.
