Nuff said.....the tranny will be dropped and he will get it soon!

cool...hope that gets it right!!!

Here is the show pics from Saturday 11/6, my first show, and my camera went on the fritz so the phone was used. My truck really drew alot of attention and people were taking pics with it! Felt great getting a HUGE response to my truck, looking forward to next season already. Met another forum member 72SWBchevy (Craig in the pic) and his wife, really great people!

I met David last night, he is good people. Down to earth, and will talk with you, and help you out with any issues you may have. His truck is just awesome to say the least!! Attention to detail is everywhere on this truck! Nice to meet up with you. Hope to see you back out there in May 2011. Craig

Thanks for the compliments Craig! I know the truck is a little loud, and has no interior to speak of. Everyone I have met on the forum is good people too, including yourself! Glad you were able to make it out to the show, and hope to see ya out there again real soon!

The dark blue truck parked one down from me. That is the truck they use on the Outback website, it's also in several pics here on the board.

Pulled my Turbo 400 today and took it to a mechanic to have it fixed, well, it's not broken. Good news but a lot of work to be told it didn't need fixin. Tomorrow I am gonna get it back in the truck and do what the mechanic told me, lift the rear tires of the ground and put it in reverse and let it run for a little while. Hope this takes care of the prob........

Let me guess?
When you put it in reverse, It acts like the brake is on.
At least that is what the 400 I had in my 69 firebird did.
Had to brake it free, And run it in reverse for a while.
Seems its common when they sit up for a while.

BTW, Excellent build

Thanks Spike! It kinda does that in Drive and Reverse. The tranny sat for almost 2 years so maybe thats the prob. I should know by the end of the weekend.

Good News, I'd love to see something like that driving the roads around here ;) so if you ever feel like driving it to Michigan... just saying...

I bet in a month I see 4-5 67-72's actually on the road and maybe that many more parked somewhere...

That would be a looong roadtrip! Around my area, just North of Houston, I probably see that many each week. Some are beaters but some are really nice.

Have not posted much lately cause Ronnie and I have got another project. Well, it's Ronnie's but I am helpin him out on this one too. It's a 1939 Chevy Master Deluxe 2 door. Plans as of now are Mustang 2 frontend, 327, slight tub, Titanium paint with white ghost pearl, custom interior, and lowered. Here is a pic of the car when we got it to the shop, this thing is almost completely rust free.

Here in OK I probably see 5-6 just about everyday on the way back and forth to work. I see one guy that drives a 72 every day to work. several others too. I know where all the trucks sitting are too. (got my eye on a 69 short truck).

Cool deal your driving it now, well around the block.:5150:
