AFAIK the wheels are OEM, the PO said they were at least, and my tires are 275/60/15. The bad thing is that the tires have about 80% tread left and dry rot is setting in! i need to drive more!  :oops:

and by the way, pearl and td's truck are the inspiration for my truck. just beautiful!  :thup:

I took the dish style off my white 71 and put on the baby moon hubcaps on. Someday I'll figure out this picture posting deal. :oops:
But I was wondering if anyone had a pic of white rims with baby moons AND chrome trim rings. That's my next project if I can find them. Thanks.

I like this look! I can't decide which I like better: caps or not. :lol:  I love the black truck with the red painted wheels.

guys I have been busy and haven't checked this link but I have to say they all look awesome! I have decided to take my 68 f100 that has a 3"4" lowering kit and put my 7.3idi in it for the ultimate cruiser. It has a 97 model overdrive ford tranny with a stand alone controller that is in my 72 crewcab. I think that with the stock 7.3 and overdrive with 3.00 gears that it will get 25mpg or better. I will do the ratrod black with stock wheels painted some color besides red with hubcaps. I will put engine in and check ride height and may have to use 3/4 front springs for correct ride height with the weight of the engine. I am going simple and was wondering if yall think that I can get away without using powersteering?
