Re: Picked up the '73 from LV...pics and questions...

Thanks for the info, Jonboy. I'm learning a lot about these 73's and 74's. I know the truck is a little beat up, but it's the project truck I've had with original build stickers and mostly original parts, minus the 454. The trucks I've had before were all Frankenstein's...including my 62. With the 73, I think I'm going to make it close to original...I'm gonna run it with the 350 it has now but I'm gonna keep my eye open for a 454 to build for it... I know the smogged down, big blocks from the early 70's weren't barnburners...but I'll build one with a little power...
