Well OK, the brakes have major problems and the guy that said he rebuilt the transmission doesn't know how to rebuilt a transmission thats for sure it's junk, so a looking I go for a 700R.. But other than that it's pretty dang COOOOOOOL. Just slammed it together for the show I'll take it all back apart and start over R/R the trans paint the frame work on the brakes build the bed. But it's a pretty good start...LOL

That is something to be proud of Gus. What was response at the show?
Gotta say that is a pretty little sbc.

Looking really good, the firewall extension really contributes to the stretched out look, beside keeping yer knees off yer chin.... :D

Which finger???:D Seriously though, you have done an outstanding job on your truck. It captures and holds the eye.
 
Hey Gus your Rat is turning out great. The patina on the cab is just right in my opinion. I'm kind'a fond of untouched patina on Rats in general.

Nice work,good proportions, thumbs up!



Thank you Z.Z.Rat.. I believe I'll leave the paint alone, I like it also.:D
 
Well I'm going to drag out this old horse

I just knew you would be driving by now. [P

Oh between the anger caused by the loser that said he rebuilt the transmission but didn't,oh brother was I mad. I just tossed it aside for awhile. Waiting on the tranny now should be done by Friday I let someone who knows how to rebuild one do it this time. She will roll again.[P
