Country Cadillac

Gentlemen,

Here is my morphodite. Its (mainly) a 1949 F-1 but I have pieces from alot of different sources and years. I have pieces from the 40's up through 2005 and from Buick, Cadillac, Chevy, Chrysler, GMC, Dodge, Jeep, Mercury, Nissan, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Toyota, and various miscellany parts ranging from marine applications to electrical conduit.

The engine is a early 70's Caddy 500 that I fabbed my own valve covers for. I'm in the process of assembling a MegaSquirt computer and converting this beast to port fuel injection. The trans is a TH400 but I'd like to eventually convert to a 4spd auto. The ol' truck is alot of fun.

There's more pics in my galleries

Bobby
