Thanks I am happy with the way they came out since I have about 120 in them. I can't decide up or down. I was completely against up but I put them on and kinda like it.

Hopefully I will get it started this evening I'm sure the neighbors will love it. I have one neighbor 2 doors down with a built El Camino, he came over the other night and was like thank god someone else to take the heat for awhile lol

Your right it does roll with some effort but once I get on the street it gets really hard to get it going the direction I want it to.

Everybody runs them down, going up and being a little different is always good. Plus the backward angle with the the slight up is cool.

Got the bed off and interior mostly torn apart. Tomorrow I hope to get get the cab off and rear end out and start setting up the 4 link.

I really dont understand why people just hack stuff to pieces now I have to fix it, so now to find a new dash[S

 

[Neverdone]

ahh just cover up the holes that are there, that is what I did.

 

[YBeNormal]

I got my new air cleaner. What do yall think??

 

[YBeNormal]

Well I met a chassis guy that builds monster trucks and he is coming by tomorrow to give me a price on redoing the front section of the frame and welding in my 4 link[cl

I have managed to get the cab off (which was a pain in the but)[S but making progress slowly

this is how the garage looks this afternoon

I like that air cleaner.

 

[Oldrodder43]

WOW, I love that creeper-chair thingy! That is something my back would dearly love!
What's the rifle for, 'Gator Control'.........

 

[bob w]

Yes, very nice air cleaner. Did you build it or buy it?
Ya probably got a good deal on the truck because it was a bit hacked up. Nothing you can't fix and make it the way you like it.

That engine looks nice in there. What kinda power you expect it to push?

Hopefully close to 400 but with a 3 speed and 4.10 gears I should have some pretty good torque

 

[YBeNormal]

Still Plugging away on it currently waiting on funds to go to the chassis shop

I dont know how many on here have tried to get a spring perch bolt out that was rusted solid but HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!!! I do not ever want to do that again.

I dont have a torch but this little canned torch is acctually pretty good and worked real well for me

 

[YBeNormal]

I also worked on my head light houseings sand blasted them down and flat blacked them. The marker light plug was all mangled so I drilled out the socket and put in a flush mount amber LED. I like the way it turned out!


Drilled the hole to the right size!

then fitted the LED

Now I just have to find the outer rings for the headlights

 

[YBeNormal]

So I drug the frame out and pressure washed it down cleaned up pretty nice

Then I figured out the hard way the caster wheels wont roll back in the garage over the lip[S That was fun

 

[bob w]

I like the pipes a lot.

Where did you get the cute little amber led's ?

Thanks!

I get all my LED lights from a company called R&P Carriages on ebay they are awesome people to work with and have great prices.
