new truck pics

thought i'd show some pics of trucks progress,getting ready for race season,had to get a 4 point cage installed to race,had it done by one of the local shops in town,.then the tank had to come out from behind seat,so got one from an 84 bronco 2 to fit between rear frame rails,then i had to install buckets in it also

Clearance to the rear axle looks a bit snug, but gotta do something, as long as it clears, so be it. Hadn't seen one done, always heard of doing such, thanks for sharing!

thanks,went to swap cams and valve train out the other weekend and pushrods were too short,so had to order new ones.so thought i'd tackle the cam degree and the big 11" wheel i bought was too big,hits cross member,so had to send that back and get one with the 9" wheel.last saturday if rained then turned to snow so no work on the truck outside.hey rob,need any projects to put in that nice big shop of yours

That shop is filling up fast and I haven't even brought any of my motors home yet LOL

Still got that crated A460 block and 3 FE engines at friends shops plus couple NP205s and some axles.

But if you can figure out how to get it down here I will make room and we can just have a gtg work party LOL.
