New toy finally...

Finally got me one. Just got this. The truck is solid and clean as can be on the undercarriage and inside. i have not had time to take pics of under and engine but this weekend i will have more time. Drove it 160 miles from Atl. it felt like a new truck on the road. Suspension is very solid, no rattle noises. Has some paint fading on the roof and a bit on the front part of the hood. One rust spot only about an inch round.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
