up and running
Here's my truck ready to run for 2016. There's more work to be done, but for now, it's gas up and drive. The paint color is a single stage, HOT ROD FLAT GREY, from Eastwood.

Super clean! I'm a fan of how tidy the engine bay is.

Re: up and running
thanks for your words. the wiring is all running up from the underside of the engine and the coil is part of the distributor.
