Here is what I think made the biggest difference..
Before and after pix of rims and tires. I sanded and polished the rims. I wanted new rims, but $$$ is too tight

wow...
Man tuff4rd, that really made a huge difference...
I'm normally not a huge fan of SWB bumps , '65 slicks yes, but not bumps.
There's only two things IMO that could make me like yer truck more...
#1 If it were a '68 .... '68's rule !!!
#2 If it were parked at my house....

That is beautiful. What color red is that? Mine was originally candyapple and wimbeldon. If that is what it is going to look like, I cant wait. Good job.
