Neat old truck, Cayne!!!! The body style lends itself well to Hot Rodding...Done a few of similar vintage and really liked them!!!! FE's do fit in them quite nicely and even a mild 390 is guaranteed to blow the rear tires off!!!! Once rebuilt with new bushings and kingpins the front end works good, not a road racer but plenty good enough for a cruizer... They're quite easy to lower if you're so inclined and IMO look great with a mild chop and the body smoothed and shaved... But I've also seen 4X4's of that vintage with lift kits and giant mudder tires and they look good, too!!!!

Have fun with it and btw, the value on these trucks seemed to be going up considerably prior to the present financial debacle.... Heck, right now it's probably a better investment then a 401K!!!!!!!

Cool old truck a friend had one back in high school.It was a good old truck,it had the six,run real good.
