It looks powerfull and is easy to observe in traffic thats fore shore. I am very cureous what engine there is under the hood , and what brakes and rearend choise you have made ? Thanks fore sharing your photos Martinius.
I love it!!! The side pipes are looking mighty cool! Reminds me of my youth when people use to run with those all the time! GREAT job, and something to be proud of, for sure! Now, how 'bout more pictures? Under the hood, inside the cab~ you know. Maybe a little "ride along" video?
Fun With Dad Nice job Bob ; You're very lucky to have a Father you could work with . I too like those Lake Pipes .
I love the look of this truck. If anything could get me from "stock" this would be it! The color is just perfect. The stance is great! and the rims are great. Great Job!!
I appreciate all the positive feedback, which makes me feel like all the work was worth it. Just a short list of a few specifics. 350ci/350 hp small block 4 speed muncie Vintage heat/Air power steering 4 wheel power disc brakes Mustang II Independent front suspension Aluminum under bed tank Rear roll pan with flush mount tail lamps 3.43 rear end 10 bolt chevy More pictures to come
Well done bob, i like the color also, something different and it sure sounds healthy enough, to spin the tires occasionally
Forgot a couple things. Ididit column Tubbed the bed for tire clearance 17x9 Foose Nitrous Legend wheels(Chromed aluminum) P275/55/17 Toyo Proxys ST II New Oak bed w/ stainless strips And way too many parts from our host!
How sweet it is... Looking good... I really like the exhaust coming out the side can you tell me what you used? My Dad and I are working on a 52 gmc p/u .
Forgot to attach a pic of the engine. Coonkka, The side pipes came from summit and are attached to hooker headers. I will get you some info on the interior asap. Bob
Your chrome supplier must be happy! Wow, saved the best for last. That could not have been cheap but sure does look awesome. 1st class job. Congrats.
Candy Apple GREEN!!! Guys - that looks terrific! Congratulations and you only had about 8 posts at the start of this thread, so you must have a pretty knowledgeable and resourceful team there. Now you and your dad get out there for a nice road trip together and enjoy. I am GREEN with envy!
Seriously~ 12 months! Mines been apart for 7 YEARS and it still doesn't have the fenders back on. Even when it is all back together, it won't look anywhere near that slick! So, I'm waiting for a "ride along" video...
Zig, Unfortunately, I live in Northern Indiana and the weather isn't conducive to a test ride video yet. When the weather is appropriate, I will post one.
