Re: My copperhead wannabe
The truck looks sweet! What wheels are your running? Gotta love that color!
Where did you come up with the guages for the truck? Did you buy the whole cluster, or did you piece it together?

Re: My copperhead wannabe
Beautiful truck! I am thinking abour running those headers instead of the long tubes I have. Is spark plug removal a pain on #5 & 6?
