Anyway i am a new member and this truck will haul my restored 1959 Bellboy boat. By the way... Marvelous is in tribute to my Father-in-Law who loved boats and the outdoors (Marv) so the old Bellboy became the Marvelous!

That's a tuff looking truck. We have a 1964 Span America runabout. I wish I could get a photo of my truck towing that boat, (both belonged to my Pawpaw), but the boat is in a garage type "in ground" boat house sitting on its trailer. I have no idea how I would get the trailer out of there. Maybe this summer I will work on that.

The wheels are from Discount tire Unique brand. They are 17" x 9" x 6.5 8 lug. O% offset and fit perfect. I paid $360 out the door for mounted and balanced on Toyo 10ply 285x75x17 tires. Oh tires were $960 more ouch!!

I'm trying to find a wheel with those same dimensions in white and am not finding many options. One of the few is ordering something like a Cragar Soft 8 through Summit, with custom back spacing, powder coated white. Cragar only offers the 17x9 steel wheels with 5" of back spacing. I even had the sales guy price the wheels is bare steel and it's only like $9 difference per wheel to have the wheel powder coated. Your truck still has the D44 upfront, right?
