It's a 'spammer'................I'm guessing Tripper will be along directly with the "Squasher Vaporizer Gun"

Thanks. She is out in the garage every time I am and I love it. She doesn't ever stop asking questions and wanting to paint, scrape, take apart everything on the truck. My motor mounts, trans mounts and wiring harness will be here tomorrow and hopefully by Saturday evening it will have a heartbeat.

The motor is in but the headers haven't arrived so didn't get to hear it run.

Moved it out of the garage to install the motor

For everything on that frame I think its a great deal if its well made.

 

[CORPO]

frame looks pretty good.. but i would do a through inspection..

 

[The Tackman]

Any advice on the best compressor without having to give my first born.

 

[Country Misfit]

Howdy neighbor,nice looking project you got there.

 

[The Tackman]

Thanks!! It's been in progress for a long time.

Flat black is so overdone that it has become a cliche of itself. The yellow looks great! Bonus points for the Poncho power!

 

[The Tackman]

I have decided against flat black and have decided on Gray with Orange and Blue lettering. I'm finally going to by a shifter. I'm looking at either the Lokar 23" or the American Shifter that's 32" if I remember correctly.

I bought a Viair Compressor and decided to go with Little Larry Fourplay manual valves. How do I tell what Yoke I need for the rear-end?

You're gonna love the Little Larrys valve. It works great on my old Dodge.
Great looking build you've got going on.
Rat On!!

Thanks...It has taken forever

This is a picture of the frame I bought for the truck.

 

[skull]

cool

the rear trailing arms are really different with those funky bends[S, But l like'em

that is a good looking chassis.

Later

Thanks Skull. After searching for motor mounts I finally called Summit Technical support. I gave him all the information he needed and the next day they arrived at the house along with the Yoke, Shifter, dual needle air gauges. This weekend I bought the Carb and with my Sons help the motor went in perfectly.

Well this thing has morphed more than a little from the first plan [cl Good for you for keeping with it. Going to be fun to see how it ends up.

I'm wondering if those lower arms are capable of supporting the weight of the completed truck? There will be a lot of strain on them where the tube coming from the lower diff mount meets up by the lower shock mount. It all looks really kool but maybe not so strong or safe ??
