Thanks, I have put about 100 miles on it so far and I am thrilled how it runs. Made it's first cruise-in Saturday night, getting alot of great comments. It appears to get some good gas mileage too, I have went about 70 miles on a 1/4 tank. We plan to take it to the Rod Run in Pigeon Forge and stay Thursday-Saturday. If I built another one I would buy three things 1) 48-53 truck 2) S10 truck and 3) a wrecked camaro/trans-am, then I would only have to buy very few parts. Funny you post that picture of the black GMC, that is one of my favorite AD's ever. My wife was wanting me to do mine black, but now we will leave it patina. Here's a real good picture except it needed a bath.
