Its just a stock looking 350. It is still on the stand awaiting paint and accessories to be bolted on. Bed rails are coming off.

You should put a 71-72 grill on it. I have 2 69's but I prefer the new grill combo. Looking forward to seeing progress. john

I have had my share of 71-72's and 67-68's but currently I prefer the look of the 69-70 grille... I also thought it would be fitting that since my very first 67-72 over 100 of them ago was a 69 and this being my last one for a good long while, it was only fitting to be a 69.

As far As the "Poo Poo" 6 cyl., there is a story behind why we call it that, other than the obvious. One of my good friends was visiting from out of town one weekend and I had happened to have just brought home another truck to play with for a while. When i popped the hood and he saw the 6 banger his nosed curled up like there was a bad smell in the air and he smurked.."6 cyl"???. From that point on its been the curled lip bad smell look every time we see a 6 cyl.
