You folks should've seen some of the looks I got driving that beast home The previous owner took off the exhaust and stuck 2' pipes off of the headers As soon as I mashed the pedal down (to see how fast it would go, and of course to merge onto the freeway 
) heads snapped and brake lights lit up all around me 
The only thing that worried me was the pass front tire...it had a bubble sticking out of the side and a slow leak.
Luckily I made it home. 3 days later there was no front end on it
Dixie Pirate I hope to get my truck looking like that one sooner or later. I've never restored a vehicle all by myself before, so it's sloooooooooooow going
But it's getting done

Ya...but you have to look at it from the perspective of what you'll have when you're done. That makes it all worth it.
