SWB 45's in SoCal?

[DomSmith]

I'm hoping to check out a few SWB pickups in person if possible to compare suspension and tire sizes before I pull the trigger. I'll give Mark a call to see his 65 but hoped there were others around.

I'm in North San Diego but work in Santa Monica so I can cover some ground to check these out. Pics just don't seem to give the real picture sometimes.

Anyone?


Thanks,

Here are some photos like you asked for in the pm. The 33 x 9.50's are Dean Brand from Les Schwabb tire centers, a big west coast tire chain.

Dom,

Come up and see mine. I think IronmanFJ45 is already planning on coming too. You guys can coordinate. I'll see when is OK with Temecula Tim. I usually pass the 78 going north on the 15 around 6:30am if you guys want to follow. Just don't get mad when you see what I drive (until the 45 is done). I'll give you a hint it starts with an H and has four letters.

We usually BBQ and Beer at the end of the day (3pm-ish). Well, beer throughout the day but anyway... Tim's rule is you have to drive a cruiser to the rancho though. And T-day weekend is probably not good for any of us.

Aaron.

Hi Aaron,

My cruiser is being slooowly restored so iI either drive my, starts with a J and has four lettersw or my old Chevy pickup. I hope thats OK. What kind of beer do you do you guys like? I can't wait to see your pickup in person.

Dom,

Give me a shout when you want to go up there we can meet at my house in Fallbrook and you can kill two birds with one stone.

Cheers,

Jiim

Thanks for the pics! I'm getting lots of good ideas.

I'll try to coordinate with Jim and Aaron to come to Tim's. My schedule is consistently inconsistent. Are you guys all talking about weekend days or weekdays too?

I am open to going up there in the afternoon durring the week or anytime durring the weekend except next Saturday due to the Christmas Parade. I was told they work on the truck one day a week but it was not on any particular day. I gave them my cell phone number so when they have a work day scheduled they will hopefully let us know.

Cheers,

Jim

Have not forgotten about you guys. We have been working on the truck mostly on Saturdays with a few Sundays thrown in-

My work schedule has me traveling alot lately- In Reno all this week- so my wife has priority over my schedule this month (or I am sleeping out side with the dogs).
