Boggy Depot Car show

Post by Jesuschrystler »

Here are a few pics of my truck at a car show in Oklahoma. I used my cell phone so forgive the size and clarity. It's a 1970 D-100 wrong grille I know, could'nt find a good "70.

That sure looks nice for being the "wrong" grille. If someone tells you its wrong, tell them to buy you the right one to replace it.

Yes he did. And he grew up about 5 miles from there. The house he built for his dad ( it was on MTV's CRIBS) is just up the road from there too. It's a state park in Oklahoma. The car show is sponsored by Lake Country Cruisers. My roll pan in the front is a 63' D-500 dump truck bumper delete that I trimmed to fit. The color is J.I. Case Flambeau Red tractor paint mixed with Rustoleum Flat Black. 15x7 Cop rims with 215/70/15 tires, slant six/auto/ 3.55 rear gears. If you've noticed I don't have the front or back glass in. waiting on the rubber to get here. The rest of the truck body is '70. Had to use a 79' radiator and trans (auto)though. Thanks..

That filler panel gives that truck a real unique look. I don't know if I could pull that off with mine but I have some ideas.

I have been contemplating doing the D-300 and up filler panel on the front of mine as well. I like the look. Nice truck man!

I had to turn the bumper delete pan upside down because the frame indentations did'nt go with a smooth look. I cut about 1-2 inches off the bottom and turned it upside down,trimmed the ends and the frame ends and it fits almost perfect. Thats a 3 leaf drop on the front too, with coil over shocks on the back. Contemplating a V8 but enjoying the slant six. Some young kids came over at the car show and said "what kind of engine is that?", did it fall over? :lol:

I just put a leaning tower of power into my 67. It didn't fall over, it's just leaning!
