Operation Enduring Freedom Truck build

Well since I have spent the better part of a year in Afghanistan sucking sand and listening to incoming rockets I thought it only fitting to call the truck build OEF.



Here's the down and dirty while I'm over here my truck has been setting in a shop in Clarksville Tn getting a major build done to her.
The name of the shop is ICE (Innovative competition Engines) Performance.

Dwayne McCraley is the owner and I have known him for some years now and is a great guy with really great skills. So from here on out I'll start posting picture of the build.

Truck details It's a 79 C10 That had a small block with a Holley two barrel and a TH400 with 2:73 gears.

Whats going in it is a Big Block 396 with a roller cam and fuel injection from FAST EZ EFI for a trans it's a 700R4 and were keeping the rear end the same.

Colors going to be green the wife picked it out so I really can say what color green it is.

The interior will be gray vinyl with black and gray hounds tooth inserts on the bench seat and door panels, the door panels are rods door panels, the dash will stay stock except for the billet insert on the dash pad and gauge bezel as for gauges I'm going to go with dakota digital with the green digital numbers.
guys let me know what ya think and if you want some A1 work done give Dwayne a call.

Well lets start this off with one picture of me at work.
