Little Blue Truck goes BEEP BEEP BEEP.
My 3yo affectionately named our new shorty --Little Blue Truck-- after his favorite book.
We picked this one up a couple months back. Was originally a small block truck that got swapped over to a BBC. 468 with a 1850 Holly and 700r4. It has 3" stainless exhaust and sounds pretty tuff. All I've done so far is swap over to an oem grill.

Very nice, and I agree the stock looks better.

Re: Little Blue Truck goes BEEP BEEP BEEP.
That's a great looking truck. I also like the factory grill quite a bit better. Do you have any specific plans for it or are you just taking it as it comes?

Re: Little Blue Truck goes BEEP BEEP BEEP.
I like the truck. Quite an unassuming little ride for rolling around with big block power. Looks good. I don't know if it's even from the same song but I have "the wheels on the bus go round and round" going round and round in my head now. So thanks.

Thanks everybody!

Would also like to figure out a better seat belt option for my kids. I guess on these trucks you can't pull the belts out all the way and manually lock them... Quote:
