Re: Show me your projects and builds

Well my pics are in my sig, but its always fun to show from whence it came to what it be now.. Currently its waiting for me to put plates on, hook up some gauges, swap a cam and intake on the 454, and set the TV cable correctly. Future plans are dropped spindles and springs in front, dropped shackles and a flip kit out back, because right now it has the ghetto blue wrench drop and its sitting on the snubbers. Also gonna replace the box sides, cab corners, rockers, and doors.. then repaint it again..

Still its a beater truck, and if it didnt get 10mpg due to the smogger 454 it would be driven already.. I need my truck running.

From this, with a Pontiac 400 I stuffed in when the 305 died...


Then some sanding and grime removal..


Stuffed a grimy old rat in it..


In bright light before the mirrors when on.


The paint, a bit of buffing, and putting all the stuff back on..
