Purs - Great looking truck. What are the details on the engine and transmission? Inquiring minds want to know.
Thanks for all details in advance - Bob

just a little old BBC
 It's a pump gas 496 built for torque. It's backed by an upgraded Turbo 400 and a 3.73 Posi out back. Nothing too special just a respectable street machine....

 if you knew how much I payed for those valve covers you would be telling me to wrap the whole engine in bubble wrap!  I hate spending money for something that is almost totally cosmetic but I just had to have them.

thanks for the kind words Randy. Anxious? Let's just say that it's been quite a lesson in patience
Jack, yes they are slicks. 31x10.5W's Probably not optimum for my gears but I got a heck of a deal so I'm gonna have to live with them for now. I'm a bit over budget  , most of you can understand...
