Finally finished...

Been working on this '65 L320 for about four years. Got the flatbed painted up and back on yesterday. Adjusted the front suspension, reset the toe-in and took it out for a drive this morning. Drives straight down the road at 60, stops straight and has decent power with the J15. Got it up to 65 and it would accelerate beyond that but the RPM is up there. I'm really happy with how it drives! Now to start using it! I took a bunch of pics this morning as I know this is the best is will ever look while I own it. I plan to use it as a driver now that its finished. I've 'lurked' on this site throughout the project and picked up some good info along the way so thanks go out to all of you for the 320 knowledge and 'lore'. Hope you enjoy the photos. These are very cool little trucks!

Top job, looks very nice and elegant, really love the two tone.

 

Only downside is that the steering wheel is on the "wrong" side (just kidding).

 

This just gives me more inspiration to start on my van....

 

Cheers,

I love it. how about a engine bay pic and a close up of those square floor mats. Are they rugged or rubber? No biggie but your interior chrome door pulls are upside down. I had mine upside down for years.

 

mine are like that also. in no hurry to change them either - they dig into my legs enough as it is!
