BUMMER... just when I was beggining to enjoy the build...Sorry, just can't wrap my head around it...

 

I'll survive. Opinions are like A-holes, everyone has one!

 

Well, have fun with your build...I dig the color, I just don't understand why you went through the trouble fitting ford covers on a c&*$y??? to each is own...CHEERS

 

Very Nice Truck. I am posting because I like build pics and I really like that color. Really nice job you are doing. Please show whatever pics you can of the Rebel wiring install. Very interested. They are built here in TN about 100 miles Southeast of me. Thanks

 

Tacson, I'm wiring rebel as well, coated and very userfriendly...much like EZ21 just not the cost like painless or Ron Francis

 

beautiful truck!

 

Thanks guys. I'll post a few of the wiring kit install soon. Bill

 

Just pimping the purists. Been thinking about building a 55 Chevy with a 351C in it so I can **** off the Chevy guys too! Glad you like the color.

 

Bill,
at your obvious 72 years young you can put in whatever you please and sit back and laugh at all the *kids*. Great build, cant wait to see more. John

 

Thanks John..more to come. Bill

 

A few update photos. The remote brake reservoir is in with AN6 fittings and hose. Although I will someday install the original steering wheel on the Flaming River column, I really like the 17" sprint car wheel for now. The instrument panel is in and the Rebel wire fuse block is mounted behind the seat since the gas tank is in the rear.

 

some more pics of the wiring beginnings. Choke and throttle hooked up.

 

Original throttle linkage worked well. My oval racer background shows through with the redundant return springs!

 

Where did you find the 17 inch sprint car wheel, thats exactly what i want to run in my COE but a 15 i feel is to small and might look a little out of place. Nice job too, gonna be a very nice truck. John

 

I don't give a D@MN what engine that is, i want that truck! Although you could fab up a cool shroud to hide the "ugly wart" ......please post pics of the Chebby with the Ford "bling" under the hood.
Seriously, your build is beautiful and the quality is amazing!
Great job.
