Yes it came with the air-ride kit, only complaint is that I had a nice cover for my rear end and it will not fit. So I used the stock and powdered coated it.

Re: project teacher

Believe it or not, I rode in that truck back in the early 70's. Needs to have a Pirates head some where on it. Brings back a lot of good memories. Looking good.

Re: project teacher

Real nice work on the engine and frame. I think the valve covers are a nice break from the usual chrome too.

I ordered it from Led foot racing, they sell cheaper fans but the guy recommended a Spal electric fan. Don't think I would had a problem with the cheaper ones but wanted to upgraded.

Re: project teacher

Had some nice weather today so I rolled her out of the garage. Not much progress to see, put Billet Specialties clamp on distributor and billet specialties plate to cover the old fuel pump spot. Still looking for the right air cleaner that will fit the dominator carb. Mocking up the core support to see if i'm going to have to cut to make the radiator fit and then off to powder coating.

I used a 4inch angle grinder, used tape on the frame and then covered everything in blankets to make sure there was no pitting. Then went back with flat file to take off any burs. I dont know if I took enought off yet, I think the engine is going to have some toque.

Re: project teacher

Got the radiator support back from powder coater and it looks great! Got the spark plug wires ran and the billet specialties wire looms on. Got the carb feed line ran and had to install a 1inch spacer on the carb so i could get some vacuum. Is it just me or does it seem like theres never enough time in the day when working on your project? Next weekend got to tackle the transmission and brake lines.
