Went for a drive...kinda
 

Well not really a drive but got it running on its own power, nothing busted, no leaks and got a very needed wash.

anyway, that truck is slicker than snot

are those exhaust manifolds factory rear dumps off of a 2wd?? I keep goin' back to look at the truck, nice!

Re: Went for a drive...kinda
 

Any chance you could get a lot more engine bay pictures? I really like your truck! Which transmission did you go with?

Re: Went for a drive...kinda
 

Thanks jaros44sr, the exhaust manifolds are from a 2wd.

T350, yes I have some with and without the motor installed I'll post some up.

Thanks Bull72,

I have been putting the front end on, aligning fenders, hood and reassembling the grill with a new fastening kit and all I can say is bring your patience to that game. I'll get some pictures up soon.

I got the front on and aligned, glad that's done. In case others are doing this and having trouble getting the hood and fender gap right meaning "crooked" to close to the fender at the back of one side and overly gapped at the grill on the other, I loosened the core support bolts jacked just enough to take the weight off the used a ratchet strap to pull the core support over and straighten it right up.
