What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?

[Russell Ashley]

Mounted my new Coker tires. The porta-walls were fine but I needed one tire and couldn't match the other three, so bought these. They took very little weight to balance, and one didn't need any. that makes me think that they are probably quality tires.

Bought a set of ram horn exhaust manifolds for $50.
Seem pretty clean. Codes on them show to be from a '65 corvette

will do.going to try to get it home sunday.it's in really bad shape.i build wrecks everyday so i can do the metal and paint but the frame choices are going to take some head scratching.it's all original except the engine but he's got two 235(?) engines for it.i'm wanting to find another factory frame(just can't bring myself to cut the factory frame,feelings run to deep) and do a mustang 2 front with a ls engine.
