This is a truck ive had for about 4 years and now im finally starting my project. The truck is getting a 460/C-6 combo with Chrysler front end. Im adding power brakes as well, the rear is getting an 8.8 with 3.73 gears and big drum brakes. Other lil things here and there. But just posting if anyone cares to look. Later.

Lookin good. You've got some work to do, but you're starting ahead of me. Good luck to you, it'll be fun watching your progress

 

Tony,
What a good solid looking starting point!!! Very clean (love that chrome grille)
Sounds like you got some great plans for the truck. MMMMM Big Block power!!!
There is no excuse for cubic inches (I'm running a 500 Caddy in my 49)

Good luck with it
Bobby

 

Tony -

Pretty straight looking truck. It should be a nice start. The 460/C6 should push it around with some authority as well.

I especially like the added parking lights on the frame horns and the soda can poking out of the firewall next to the M/C.

 

Tony-
Welcome. Looks like a great start. Have a good time.

 

Tony,
Great starting point!. Are you still thinking 460/C6 with gas shooting over $3/gal.? What was the purpose of the small "Athens GA" plate on the front bumper.

Tony, looks sweet! You will have to put some pics of the interior and bed in the gallery when you get some time. Now I'm not sure where I want to start - pull the front clip or the bed......Fox

 

Well, you got a nice start.

Would you take some pictures of how the 302 was mounted once you lift it out of the way? Perhaps you could email them to me - that is a project I may do myself.
