Re: Project two tone.
 
Hey guys! Well, It struck me that 2 years ago Today my 292 was completed at the machine shop. The part that struck me is I still haven't started it! haha Man has 2 years gone by fast!
Due to my camera being gone I haven't gotten pictures yet, but last weekend I spent a ton of time with the truck and got the underneath of the dash primed and painted. Went with a stainless steel color. Also did a temporary prime on the back interior half of the cab as it's to cold to prime with the gun, but I was on a sanding spree. lol Cab is pretty much ready to be put on the cart right side up again so I can start working on the floor boards. Anyhow, camera should be back soon. Will post some photos and will be getting some parts in as well. Later gents. :chevy:

I've seen that video before, Just imagine the look on people's faces as they watch an old tractor haul ass up a farm road at 50mph!

At last some pictures. :metal:

Back of the cab is in a temporary cover prime. Underneath of the dash is done. 1st half of the trans tunnel cover is done. 2nd half in primer to await a new shifter hole drilled out.

Fuel tank is on the way. Should have some updates next weekend. Later gents. :chevy:

And merry Christmas!

Hi all! Hope your Christmas was awesome! Anyhow, Christmas day was great and I still got some truck time in. :metal:

Tank mounted and fuel line is bent and painted up. I know it isn't the best way to run it, but due to the way the sending unit fitting aims I had no choice; and I wasn't going to re-route the entire system again, so I got some AC delco ethanol resistant fuel line and a filter. Pump is a carter 100 gph that's capable of 15 psi so it should have no problems. Also I am running 3/8 line. Anyhow, have to get some nuts and bolts to mount the pump, but the tank is in and the lines are done. :bann:

Until next time. :chevy::gmc2:

TJ,

Tank looks good. There are several guys building hot rod sixes like yours on the facebook pages. Not sure if you are on any of those. I saw the same drawing as above and thought about you. TJ would like that.

Did you get anything cool for the truck for Xmas?

Thanks Bret, I don't have a face book account. Been thinking of getting one. haha Nothing truck related, Christmas bonus went towards the tank and finishing the fuel system though. haha :chevy:
