Update: I havent posted in a while. In a year of owning my truck I have swapped the 302 for a 351W, changed over to power steering, added some bucket seats with a console and paint.

no the seats wasnt much work at all, just swapped the racks and all over. dont have any room under the seats though but who needs it its a truck right. the overhead is bone white, but cant make up my mind if i wanna put the rest of the interior that way or finish it out in red and black.

Let me correct myself. In the video, I say it is a 400 modified. It is a 400 Cleveland.
