Yea the 327.....is a 305:waah: on top of that after pulling it out, its completely locked up and out boredum took it apart to find out one of the piston is broken ( explains being locked up) so now I have a strait six that I don't want and a 327 that's actually a 305 but may as well be a boat anchor. Oh yea and 2 powerglide transmissions that are useless to me WOOHOO!!!!!

Don't matter I'm still having fun.

Lookin good, keep it up. My 327 turned into a 283. strange how they transform once you buy them isn't it.

Re: White Trash Circus
 

Well the motor and trans search is on....but I got rocker and cab corners on the way from Top Banana:smoke:

Re: White Trash Circus
 

you have to keep it a little more trashy, I think showing pictures of more beer cans, more mullets and more ass crack with wife beeters is in order!

Re: White Trash Circus
 

Well I got some what of an update, good news....I moved which means bigger garage and more room to work on my truck. Bad news the owner of the shop I worked at told me via text message "my services are no longer needed, come get your stuff and give me my key back". I gotta say I'm not that upset about not having to deal with the drama!

Re: White Trash Circus
 

Got some work done....
