Well it's currently closer to you then it is to me.....lol.....it's living the good life out in california.....and frankly my buddy' trip just keeps getting worse. Yesturday he was driving his friends truck and stopped at a 4 way stop the guy behind him didn't. They are okay...stiff and sore...but buddies truck sounds like it got hammered hard.

Dino..Your going to dig the rig it needs a little work but it's slammed with full air ride , a new crate big block.,new tranny,4 link the works. I can't wait to get it back here and mess with it....so many projects at the moment and this one actualy runs....lol

But then if he did get the glove he wouldn't have told me anyhow ....lol....I am so going to owe him if this works out

Man that stinks! I've heard horror stories about trying to get across the border to get parts trucks, and basically no one down here will mess with it. Too bad our border with Mexico wasn't this way. Our country should take some advice from your country!

Thanks ...
It's got a new crate 454 in it right now so I guess I won't mess with that ( for now )....

Well the new tow rig is hanging out in california longer then I had wanted, by the time my buddy got all his stuff together he didn't have enough time to make the drive so he is going to have to fly back. So i will have to road trip it down later and bring it back.....maybe rent a trailer and bring something else back too.....lol

I haven't painted or done body work in years......I was never great at it....but I think it's time to gear up and revisit that . I don't need a cummins in it right now the 454 is new and I kind of want something to run....lol....but i bet a superchrger wouldn't hurt much would it....LMAO**

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
 
Heck no it wouldn't! Might as well order it so when the truck gets there you can hook it up!

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
 
Well it's been a rough couple of weeks.....I have been out of the shop way to long and am trying to get back into the groove...

Portland swap meet was great for me I picked up a wack of bits and pieces that i needed and as soon as i download some pictures i will post them up. Had a flat on the trailer.....lost my brake controller....had the trailer death wobbel and survived it ( touches wood ) Picked up my new a/c unit for the street truck and a bunch of fresh polished parts and mocked it all up. Picked colors for the street truck and hope to hit the paint booth mid next week....and started a shop expansion phase 2 ...lol

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
