Talking It"s Alive.....ahh Ahh Ahhhhh!!!!!

Five years and one month later, I got to drive my truck for the SECOND time ever. I fired it up, prayed to the heavens, and backed out of the drive way. Took it around the block to test it out. Lots of vibrations (mufflers are on but no tailpipes yet and inner fenders are not bolted up to rad support yet), very touchy gas pedal (chirped the tires couple of times, and peeled out in reverse at gas station), kind of scary driving something I built. Taking it in monday to be looked over by mechanic (i'll get him to put in my 3rd torque convertor bolt) because I can't get under my truck anymore. Get tailpipes too while I'm at it. Hopefully by Tuesday, it will become my new daily driver. Now I need to find some mags/tires which is becoming quite the problem around here. Hard to get 15 x 8 and 15 x 10 combo.
