ps. I posted this originally over on the 48 to 60 side, but was so happy that I thought I would share it here too.

 

That sounds sweet! I assume it runs on pump gas?

 

Post photos on your progress, sounds like a great project.

 

That will be a blast to drive. Congrats!!

 

390fe,

Yup, pump gas. With the fuel injection it should be real reliable. I should be able to post pictures in a week or so, I'm traveling over the next few days for a niece's graduation.

Thanks.
