Ken, you haven't replied, it better be because you have been installing the gauges and shooting pics!

Jeff,
Actually the reason I haven't replied is because I was out of town. I went to Dallas this weekend for the Goodguys Rod run. Stayed the weekend with my buddy Keith (n2billet), and spent time with Scoti at the show. It was a good trip

I haven't installed it yet, because I don't have it yet. The seller shipped it USPS, because he has had trouble with UPS. I guess the post office sent it by pack mule. I finally got a "notice" Saturday while I was gone. I should have it in my hands tomorrow....

Sweet!

Did you snap any pics while you were at the show? You had some pretty cool ones from the last one.

Keep us up to date on the dash...kewl?

Yeah, I took quit a few pics. The cut-off year for entry is 72, so there aren't any 73-87 trucks there. I haven't had time to download and resize yet. I'll probably do that tomorrow. In the meantime, here's a peak at my favorite truck there....

Ken, I've been waiting patiently for some of your pics & bet myself which would be posted first..... I felt that truck was the outstanding one of the 67-72's @ the show.

BTW.... thanks for getting me in @ the show & once again we enjoyed the night of fine dining & company. Man, maybe this will become a yearly tradition.

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.

You knew it would be. I just wish I could have gotten some better pics of it. Here a link to the 67-72 thread that I posted-Silver 67

Your very welcome for everything. I enjoyed the company as well. I have been going off and on since it was out at Southfork Ranch. I will be there next year too, and plan to hang out with all my Dallas area buddies again.....

It was good to meet up with you guys out there. I saw a lot of trick trucks, but it seems like there is never enough time to see everything. Looking forward to seeing everyone again, hopefully in my truck.....

Jonboy,
It was a real pleasure to meet you too. It was nice to sit down with some of the forum members and talk trucks. I'm like you, I want to be in my truck on the next trip up there. Of course it won't be at Goodguys, since they have a cut off date of 72.

Maybe in the Spring for Super Chevy in Ennis. The Blazer won't be done, but the 77 should be in good shape by then....
