Pat:

George, not sure on color yet, maybe a blue. It's going to be a few years, money will dictate the completion date!
I could have sworn I posted these last night, but here is the homemade rotisserie that I made. |
Now there is a way to use your engine stands. Good thinking there bud !!!!!
Now get that bad boy blasted and painted...... you slacker |
looking good so far
|
That is an awesome way of using those stands. The will make the job much easer.
I love the Gran Torino in the background also. |
It works like a charm buck! That belonged to my wife's grandma. It's a 4 door, and probably the ugliest color possible- Brown!
|
Well, all the parts have been stored for the winter. Got the cab off of the donor truck, and put my old cab on it. It's off to the salvage yard this week. Oh, still have to cut off the bedsides for possible later use! Now just have to start ordering parts, so I can get the frame back together next spring.
|
i would keep the engine(love it). r u gunna upgrade the tranny? what are the plans? cmon, inquiring minds want to know.
|
I'm going to run a 390, and try to put in an 80's-ish five speed and transfer case.
|
I did pick up a nice bed from one of our Nebraska members, I'll post up some pics when I pick it up next month.
|
I'm posting so I get updates. It looks like a cool project.
