:jdp: I spent last night and this morning skimming and reading this AWESOME thread!!!:metal: Hard to believe I missed this one til now...:dohh:

I truly love this board... Getting to see the amazing builds going on keeps me motivated...:uhmk: Although my static drop is not as much work as what I see you guys, and a host of others doing, it is great fun nonetheless...

There are too many points about this build, which caught my eye, to mention without this turning into a short Novel that is... Congrats!!! and keep up the GREAT work!!!:metal:

Hopefully a Nova burnout pic is out there somewhere...:burnout:

Thanks for all the comments guys!! I got it running, got to build the exhaust next (started last night), bolt the front clip on, put in the radiator (I'm worried about the block!! many winters out side!) Than a few more things to get it on the road!! Pics soon to follow!!

As you can see I have a lot left to do!! The motor is wired and running, I have to run the tail light harness from the cab back, install the rest of the cooling system, the front headlight harness, wire the turn signals, you get the idea!!
Maggie is ready to drive it!! I can't get it done fast enough!!

Re: Maggie's Custom
 
Nice updates man! Nice to see ur wife back at it with you too! Is that a one piece drive shaft? Have more pictures of that? Changed ur mind about running the exhaust through the frame rails? Can't wait for the start up video!!!

jdoisher 10-08-2013 10:31 AM

Re: Maggie's Custom
 
I shortened the stock drive shaft (one peice). I can take more pictures of it tonight, I had Inland Truck do it for me. She is out there as much as she can be! Always helps when she can. It looked a ton easier to do the exhaust out side the frame rails.

likaroc13 10-08-2013 11:30 AM

Re: Maggie's Custom
 
Nice pics, & great work you're doing. Won't be long till she's on the road. I know I'd be anxious to drive it as well! Oh, & nice score on the rear bumper; it fits the look perfectly.

Re: Maggie's Custom
 
Now see?
Coulter makes doing your own exhaust look wicked cool and impossible to replicate.:waah:

You make it look easy enough that I think I could do it....:metal:


Hmmmmmmmm :smoke:
