Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: One low C-10

Hey guys sorry it has taken me so long to get back on here. Thank you to everyone posting such great things about my truck. I'm also going to try to reply back to all the questions posted. The Alloway wheels yes they are one-off Boyds and now with Boyds passing we do not get these wheels anymore. Boyd did those wheels for my boss and my boss is the only one that could order them so there will be no more of them produced. The front bumper is a 88-98 smoothie it was sliced in the middle and both sides to fit around the front-end. The interior is being built by my dad, He is a contractor so I leave wood work up to him and body mods to me. Haha. Yes the T-bird was for Georges wife, she loves speed the bird is supercharged and a 5-speed. For a quick over view of the truck its been chanelled over the frame 6in. The dash is a 64 bel-air dash that was lengthened 3in. on each side and steering column molded into it. I will try to post more updates and pics soon.

Re: One low C-10

doored74- Thanks for sharing. Please keep us updated as time permits.

Scoti- You are correct. I forgot the Bird was built for Ms. Poteet, and yes what Momma wants, Momma gets. Cause when Momma ain't happy, nooobodys happy.

Re: One low C-10

Doored74: I heard that George made his fortune by being the guy that started the vitamin packs and energy boost packs that you see at every convenience store counter. Any truth to that?

If so, it was a brilliant business move. Whatever business he's in, it pays well because he has the best shops in the country building cars for him.

Re: One low C-10

That thing has tons of work in it . I love a vehicle that has that kind of time in it . You walk around it and see so many mods .Then you spot more on the second walkaround , then more on the third . I like the firewall mods that I can see in the pics . I am sure it is a nice treat to view in person .

Great question! This is one great looking build that I forgot about. I would love to know if this is still a project in progress.

He has some new parts that he need to put on. I will try and stop by and see if I can get any new pics.
