Alex/Gordon,

Lazy/Ignorance/Apathy? Perhaps all three. In fact the front tyres are 10.50s and don't belong on the HUP, but they came with the deal.

As you can tell I am a long way from driving the HUP thru the Barrett-Jackson concours, so I am not too fussed about tread direction or historical accuracy.

It is fitting that the treads are backwards, for it seems that for every move forward with this HUP, there are three steps backwards. Just ask Bob and Grant about the short drive shaft that fits between the tranny and transfer case...

Part of the fun of restoring rusty old trucks. Speaking of old and "c"rusty, when can we expect a visit from wild Bill?
