Ahh the finned drums are a sign its from an old Fairlane or similar. I don't think the F-Trucks had finned drums. I could be wrong though.

The 1st custom beddieI restored (1st pic) in my gallery had the diff from a F100 and was not wide enough for flares even though I had 14 x 10 dragways on the rear. This diff is not wide enough for flares either, not even with 14 x 8. I will be cutting the rear flares to fnish closer to the body  so the look is not too drastic. I like the look of no flares but the missus wants flares so the van doesn't look like an old stockie? she would rather a custom look so the 4 x 4 drivers towing their big caravans will think we got something special ??? funny business caravan egos dunno why cause all they do is park up in a caravan park with a hundred other vans full of mainly old people (woops does that mean that I am becoming one?)
ekm ...... never lead with your chin, let others lead with theirs

Young people camp in tents do they? ??? :P

Hey Hervey bay is just up the road a few hours. I might have to come for a run one day while you're up and I'll buy you a beer.
