Re: I have my website now...so you can see my truck.

yeah just a truck,,, but a damn sharp truck! Still though if you gonna drive it you have to accept those little unexpected occurances. Just glad there was no hail with that storm.

Beautiful truck man, you did good!

Where abouts in NW Ga? I used to live in Hartwell - NE Ga.

Thanks for the kind words my friend.
Actually - my wife called me just after I got it back in the garage, and said where she was at at the time it was hailing pea size.

Talk about somebody freakin' out -
Those people who had a maniac pulling in their garage between my sister-in-law's and my house wouldn't have known what to think!

Oh, I'd have been a little freaky on that one too. Actually I drove like a maniac trying to beat the rain, and did make it to my road - just the wrong end of before the rain hit.

I live in the top left corner of GA - Ringgold. Coming up I-75 it's the last city before TN/Chattanooga. Have heard of Hartwell - can't say I've been there for sure though.

Ok, looked up Ringgold, you're just north of Dalton, heard of Dalton. The Google map I was looking at doesn't show rivers but doesn't the chattahoochee run through there somewhere?

Anyway, Hartwell is abot 15 miles east of I-85 about 20 minutes from south carolina line. Best thing about it was the lake, man I miss all that water! lol

I used to work in Dalton. And, as a matter of fact, my name is Dalton. So I'll let you guess on the ribbing I took for that. The Chattahoochee doesn't come up this far north, but I am familiar with it of course being a Georgian.

With your description of Hartwell, I know whereabouts you were now. I would have looked it up the other night - but I had pulled an all nighter Friday nite, and was feeling mighty tired.

Nice truck. I like that you worked the AC/CD player thing in without cutting the dash. Everything looks very slick. Good job.

Re: I have my website now...so you can see my truck.

was just looking at you engine compartment and noticed you don't have a spacer under the carb. I'm wondering if you have any problem heat transfer/gas boiling out of the bowl after you shut it down.

I ask because I have this problem and a spacer is one of the things on my to-do list.

Thanks - that page has more views than the rest of them. Maybe I should just post pics of my wife. I showed her that pic and she immediately said "I didn't even look decent in that picture!" Arggh - women.

I have never had this problem. Only thing I can think is perhaps different intake? Mine is the Performer RPM high rise aluminum...don't know if that makes the difference from what you have. If you got the same thing - then I'll just shut up and say - uhhh, I dunno.
