Sounds good!. That 408 windsor will really move that car, notchback is a little lighter than the GT's, even better. The truck looks great, mean looking with the wide tires. I built a 347 for my 66' 350 and it was a blast.

Not to nit pick, but looks like it has a older box on it. '78's had hinged gas doors IIRC. It doesn't really matter though, as long as it serves it purpose.

i'll be working on it as funds allow. i'd like to make it a semi-daily driver and tow rig for my mustang and camper. i want to swap some late model seats into it . i'm going to tackle the body issues first. i'd like it to be as nice as some of the trucks here!

The main thing is that you have it and you did really well. The rest will follow!. The fun and exciting stuff is ahead of you.

I tell them all the time that my truck will be around in 30 years and theirs won't lol. It sure rides nice though.... and dana 60 front.... dang rich kids!

I'm just a bum college kid myself, didn't mean no disrespect. And for the smog, If you throw a diesel in an old truck won't it be smog exempt? Cali still doesn't smog 2010 diesels.
No real offense taken I just work hard on my projects and for my $$ and people often think I'm just spoiled based on where I live. Not so much now that I am a bit older but in high school and college it was that way. Kinda bugged me.

A little more to it than you think on the smog thing (been there done that) and it is a complete different story/book (and a horror story at that).

Anyways - bummer on the 06 and paying tons for it. I NEVER understood why people do that. Just not my style.

And as far as the 2010 diesels not being smogged - as of this second they are not, but that is changing VERY soon. If the smog ***** have their way diesels back to 08 or so will be smogged.

Compensating? Huh? I have both a crew cab AND a supercab so I must be OVERcompensating then. Not sure what for - maybe the extra people I want to be able to carry???
