Hey Grant,

Nice work. I'm really glad to see this era truck getting the exposure it deserves. I always look foward to seeing the updates in the magazine. I was wondering what tire and wheel sizes you are going with. How much offset do you have in the front and rear? It looks like you did the right homework!

Not that I can see . There has been an article in every issue of the mag since I subscribed. He just hasn't updated here recently.

I got an e-mail from Grant last week. He was working on the next installment of his build-up, in which he fabricated some custom brackets to mount his Mustang seats and was wanting a hi-res picture of the factory bucket-seat brackets to include with the article for comparison purposes. I only had one hi-res pic....don't know if it'll work for him, but he said he'd try and see.....and said he was going to plug FORDification in that article. :thup:

Man not sure if anyones following the mag coverage of Grant's build but his article on the fabrication of his bed to accomodate his suspension drop and keep a factory apperance on the inner bed was "Killa"

Great Job "Buckin".

I've bought "Classic truck" from time to time for as long as I can remeber. My first ever subscription to the mag expired(my intial yrs pkage was made mainly to follow this build) recently and I re-uped for 2 more years

I picked up last months issue because of this link. It seems that this project might take longer than 1 year. I hope it does since I just subscribed. :D

Most magazines will let you buy back issues to fill out your collection. They usually are at least double the regular price though.
