Nice color. Where did you get the Pro-Comp oil pressure gauge in that size?

Re: Truck is finally finished

i got the pro comp from a speed shop here in vegas. and yah i wasnt to worried about winning in the show maybe next year ill try, this year i was just happy to have entered talked to so many people and they were all surprised at what i have accomplished at the age of 20. well ill be posting a video shortly and some drag times within the month sorry about the big pictures and ill get back to you on the oil gauge. and about the competition people had there numbers on little slips printed out asking them to vote for them quite funny but no big deal
