Hello all,
Been lurking on this site for the past few months, figured today would be a good day to introduce myself since I finally got my some bugs worked out and drove my 65' for the first time. I picked up the truck from craigslist in Oregon and had it shipped to my location in AZ. Truck has new tires, powder coated rims, epoxy lined interior, and body work/paint done in a shop. Powertrain is stock and it has about a 1.5" body lift.

Hi Ivan, welcome to 60Patrol! 
Great looking Patrol. It looks like it wants to get dirty.

Re: 65 Patrol
Jimmy, We really like your paint scheme. If I knew how to post pictures i'd send you where we are starting from. Plus rigs I'v already got in operation. They are also in my book Hunting Comancheria on Amazon.
Was it hard to cut the doors down to fit the lines of the bed? How much torque did you lose with your oversized tires? We need every HP but your experience would be appreciated.
Well done, you might spot a clone around San Antonio in about six months.
