I know that this is not your typical G-Machine ( Corn Binder ). It is just to cool to let go not to mention I'm going to build it with my 15 yr old son I think it's a 64

What do you guy think? I'm not going to build a chassis for it. I will clip it with a 78 G-body front end. 5" ride height

Awesome choice. Looks kinda like Tow-Mater from Cars. Need to fab up an old school tow rig on the back. I've got a junk 79 Camaro if you decide to use a 2nd gen F body clip. What kind of wheels are you gonna run?

I can imagine some skinny's and a set of big MT's on the back along with the towing rig. Dragster tow truck? Whatever you decide, I'm sure it will be bad a$$. Good luck Lou.

I'm looking at Boze Forged I like the Pro-touring 19X8.5 in the front with 20X10 in the back

Lou, I was looking at the front of that truck and thinking how cool it would look if you could set back the entire grille and headlights by 2 or 3 inches...so that the fenders and hood would "overhang" a bit. Kinda hard to e'splain.

I picked up two International P/Us for $100 when I was doing one for this old man. He liked some molding and emblems that were on the trucks. Now I can't help my self I have to build them so my son is going to help me build this one then its his sisters turn because she gets the other one.

My lil girl has been in the Garage with me since she was 16 months. She almost looks like a boy. She didn't really get hair till she was almost 2. What is really scarry is she just turned 7 and were still working on the same truck.
