havn't ran it down the strip in about two years (been in the paint shop that long ) the tires are Mickey T's Sportsman Pro's (d.o.t. approved street legal) man, it's a long story about the hood... I have a Harwood fiberglass lift-offhood. I used to have a BBC with a tunnel ram & 2 Holley 600's so I had to cut a hole in it.





i've changed up the heads,intake, & carb combo so I no longer needed a big azz hole in my hood. Paint & body shop filled it in, but it looked like crap on a stick, so I was just going to buy a new one... turns out Harwood no longer makes a lift-off for our trucks, but they would be glad to sell me a nice bolt-on for $450.00 that weighs 3 times as much as the lift-off, plus, I would have to find some hinges, latch, bump stops, etc... so now it's at a boat repair shop getting redone better... hopefully
