I've been a member for a decade or so but for the last 6 or 7 I haven't been able to work on it much do to life changes. However, I am back at it and so excited to have a plan and be wrenching on it. Here are a few pics.

Nice truck! Is that a vacuum pump on the fender for the brakes? Does it work well?

It is and it does. Seems to give me few heavy pushes on the brakes. It's crazy. That thing will store 15"s of vacuum for days after turning the truck off.

Nice looking truck. Glad you were able to hang on to it until you had time!

Thanks! Originally it was going to just be a drag truck but I decided to calm it down and make it a driver. I have an LS I'm building for it but I think it's going to go in my next project.
