Re: New ride
The hood strap is for pulling the hood off. I fixed the electric fans started detailing everything including the motor and the interior. I repainted the head light bezels and hooked up the sound system not that you can hear it over the motor

Re: New ride
Since it's in the builds section everyone was probably waiting to see the progress pics before they started posting. Darn sure a nice ride, I happen to have the same wheels on my DD

Re: New ride
Thanks maybe it should be moved out of build section theres not going to be a lot of drastic changes made that worth posting. I am just going detail the heck out of it and install a new bumper & Grill and do some minor interior work and install some shiny stuff under the hood.( I hate when people post photos ever time they paint a part or replace a bolt.)

Re: New ride
How do you like the tall tunnel-ram intake? I had one on my 88(single carb) and didn't care for it, lost a lot of bottom end torque over a shorter intake.

Long@Low c-10
Here are a couple of updated photos of the trucks for those intrested. Took them both out for a short cruise today. Getting the c-10 ready for her first show in couple of weeks so I am redoing the interior and fixing a few things. I also shot a really short video of the c-10 running.

Long&low made it too her first show today had alot of fun with my oldest daughter tomorrow is her 18th b-day so we spend the day together!
It was a local show with about 200 cars and everybody knows everybody (but us) finished 3rd in the 70 and newer truck class (no award for 3rd) got beat by a mid 90's jacked up chevy pickup (nice truck should have been in a different class) and a almost stock dodge warlock owned by one local club members wives. (funny thing happened as we were leaving a couple of guys stopped me and said they couldnt belive both trucks beat me and the only reason was they dont know me) The truck got a ton of attention by the folks coming to the show. Got a lot of the "how do you drive it questions"? Over all we had a great time and will be hitting another show next weekend. Here is a couple of shots of the truck. 6:45 heading to the show ![]() Arriving at the show around 7am ![]() around 10 am ![]() Last edited by cl79c10; 08-15-2009 at 10:17 PM. |
