I love how you have no chrome on the engine, looks real tough and businesslike. No show, just all go. Perfect. Great job.

Re: Iam finally legal took my truck out for a ride

Thanks for the comments everyone I have been waiting for this & it looks like I am going to have some fun driving itI have the kickdown cable to install and a few other things. I also want to get it checked before I really lay it down it spudders when I am about to get on it like it hesitates.It felt good on the freeway though. I even had a big pop from the Carb & a smoke cloud when I gave the gas a tap at low speed any Ideas what it might be?
