Re: The Snortin' bull
The start of the exhaust from the header's out to the rear.Gonna have to be creative to keep tight high up and routed clear of everything.Left a clear route for it during the build.I think?

Re: The Snortin' bull
Set up a battery holddown for the start battery. Swapped out the auxillary optima redtop battery for new one as it was not holding a load anymore.It was a core battery I kept alive over a year and a half.

Re: The Snortin' bull
The previous owner (po) had put the blower fan switch in the glove box. Using a spare knob I moved the switch to the dash .Adapted it to one of the factory hole plugs.The original factory AIR lever is now the cable to open the water control valve.

Re: The Snortin' bull
Dropped 1960 gmc front shot. "Just cool I think". Maybe in the eye's of restoration or antiquier people they may feel this ruined. This is preservation.

Re: The Snortin' bull
Adapting the 1960 gmc hubcap's to later model 5 on 5 wheel's.This is still a budget build . I had some (impala) Caprice Police Cruiser rim's around so I used these for the Bull at this time. Kept it simple to keep the cap's retained.

Re: The Snortin' bull
The axle's are back.Reinstalled them today into housing. Redrilled for 5 on 5 and turned down in the center to fit the later model drum's.FYI or BTW on these early Dana 44 axle's they use same as the big Ford ( torino ) axle bearing's very common and they are 30 spline axle shaft's.
