My wheelbase is about 154.
The running boards are now 8” off the ground and should
drop ½” when I finish adding windows, interior, etc…
I’m getting close to painting the cab. All
my stainless grill trim is polished and ready to go. I also have a newly
chromed bumper and I chromed the door window glass frames (off a later
47 truck). I’ll probably put the west coast (semi truck) style
mirrors on it. It will also have a small aluminum wing mounted behind
the cab with a light on the underside to light up the bed. The top
of the bed will be quite cool, but is not done yet. It will have
stainless bungs welded into each side rail to snap in multiple types of
racks for hauling motorcycles, bicycles, etc. There will be rubber
mats running down both sides where tires of a car go and the center will
have graphics painted in the middle like an old surf board. There
are numerous holes already placed in the bed for tie downs. The bed
tilts and will require ramps for car hauling. I plan on storing the
ramps on top of the storage boxes in specially designed cut outs
