Sweet truck! Love the shots of it. What do you have fer a heart and soul in that thing...let me guess...632 big block V8 with 150 NOS shot and 8 pounds of supercharged boost????

sandiego65 · 01-20-2014, 01:29 PM

Your truck is looking sweet man, wish I could have gave you a hand but it's hard even touching my truck, too much family obligations and honey do's right now. Glad to see you got it bagged the wheels look sick the chrome looks killer. Hope to cruise with you one of these days if I ever get mine going.I bet you get a crazy amount of thumbs up when you hit the surf spots!

No worries man It's understandable especially when it's hard enough for you to work on your own truck. But thanks really apreciate it, and yeah would be rad to cruise when yours is out going just shoot me a notice!

HAHA!!!! LOL! Well....you would be surprised of the "dust cloud" my truck made when we first started it! LOL! And it has a 6 banger.

jchav62 · 01-21-2014, 12:55 PM

I can dig it!!

earl84 · 01-21-2014, 01:36 PM

I love that combination of original patina coupled with the whitewalls and subtle, not over-the-top, chrome on the hubcaps, bumper, grill, etc. It just looks really good to me for some reason.

dr69burb · 01-23-2014, 11:02 AM

Thanks. I'm getting ready to start working on It again. I want to redo some stuff. Iv been seeing a truck just like yours in el cajon when I drive to work.

Realnoisy · 01-23-2014, 01:19 PM

The truck looks great! For a few thousand dollars you have a truck that stands out and you're creating sore necks from all the heads turning. Again, great looking truck.
