Re: Project "Old Aux"

I usually don't like corvette ralleys on trucks but those white ones look down right sexy! GVizzle would you happen to have the rim and tire specs for those?

Re: Project "Old Aux"

Big Mike,

The motor is being assembled with all the new shiny parts. The rear end is being assembled, new bearings, axels, seals, gears, posi, and of course the 14 inch WILWOODS.

We should have the motor in with the tranny for good by the end of next week, and then start with wiring and plumbing.

Our current goal is to have the truck complete by the Goodguys Scottsdale event in March. Porterbuilt will have it in his booth so plan on comin out and seein the truck in person.

I am goin out to AZ next week to see the truck so I will take pics and post them.

Eric-

I agree with c10seconds - this thing is sick! It's going to get plenty of well deserved attention @ Goodguys!
