We have the mirror for both the driver's side and the passenger side. The knob and bolt that hold the driver's side mirror on is broken so we need a new one. We are looking for a spare stock air cleaner assembly from which to rob the snorkel...unless Chip found one this week. |

I don't know if I read into it correctly, but you guys are planning to run the factory mirrors and not the peep mirrors, right?

Sorry Alex, I wasn't very clear in my response. Yes, we are going to run the factory mirrors at least for now. |

Spun aluminum. Screw on is proper old-school style is my understanding so that is what I got. IMO these are very cost-effective way of adding cool. |

Re: The pusher
Can those mooneye wheel covers be screwed to aluminum wheels too? Like weld racing rims? I love those and believe you can get them with center spikes and a starburst pattern too... Like this car... I'm getting some.

Re: The pusher
Just another pic. As you can see from looking at both side of the truck, someone over the years was able to put equal dent-making time into each of the doors.

Re: The pusher
This project is too cool, I love it.
Looking forward to seeing it completed. I'm assuming you did the fauxtina paint job yourself? Regardless it looks great.

Re: The pusher
Thanks. No faux-tina on the truck except for the signage on the doors. This is the original paint and original wear and tear. It has spent 50 years in Phoenix, AZ.

Re: The pusher
Very nice! The gray "283" with script valve covers looks so much better than an SBC covered in Taiwanese chrome crap.

Re: The pusher
The base for the ram air assembly sits on top of the motor waiting for the snorkel assembly and hoses. One of the inflow tubes mounted in place can be seen at the bottom of the picture just left of center.

Re: The pusher
I was staring at that picture thinking pretty much the same thing. Endless-you and Chip are doing a heck of a nice job.

Re: The pusher
Thanks for the compliments guys. The project came together in time for the Hot Rod 100 Reliability Run here in Phoenix and now the truck is back to cruising the roads and hauling hay...just a little more quickly now.
