Grill placement looks real nice

It's been a little bit since I've posted on this ride.
We done the brake lines yesterday installed the master cylinder and have brakes today.
While my son was plumbing on some of the air ride, I made the headers today also.
Mini boom tubes.
I'll cut spiral core baffles out and stick in each tube when I finish tig welding them tomorrow.

Moving Right Along

It's looking more like a truck every time we see it [ Headers should sound great [cl

Good work, Sir!

I'm doubly pleased to see pictures... and full-size!

I just reread this thread.

I am impressed and inspired. I've been slacking on my 39 lately. So many little things, and that pesky day job...

Also, thank you very much, OI, for your complement on my truck.

No problem, when you do a good job I feel you should be commended for it

I'm really stoked to see you achieve a look with the choice of front end. Usually they look terrible in my mind being fenderless, but this ride sits well with the wheel/radiator placement and far exceeds the looks that usually happen with fenderless rods and these front ends...great work old iron!!![cl

air suspension

Hello: just wondering beyond and separate from your air springs and mounting brakes which you show...Whaor how much more $$$ will the controll system run with pump tank and electronics? I had all shown in your build pages in the air bags and brackets given to me really cheap, but am wondering how much more the system is goimg to run to finish...Thx Larry L.

You'll have around $700 to $900 for all the other stuff.
Get a hold of Airbagit.com for reasonably priced kits less the bags.
Here's one of their single compressor kits for $400 and you'll have to buy a few miscellaneous fittings.

Chop

I like the proportions. How much was the top chopped and how long was/is the bed?
Thanks

Spooner

 

[Old Iron]

It's been awhile since I done this one.
4" on the top
I think the bed was 55"
