700R4............

Why not get something like this? I'm still new to getting parts for these trucks but wouldn't this work well?

I think I might go the 700R4 route eventually.

I like the shifter (with the 20Cal. round on it), just dont like the RPMS...


Took the wife over to SANTA CRUZ for dinner for our 8 year anniversery....frickn truck hauled ass over 17....ran good.

Temp actually got to 190 !!!

hey chief, I know this is off your subject, but do you have any pics of your hopper? I know that there is alot of haters on lowriders, but to me all car and truck projects share something in common. (and their builders)

My hopper was built years ago....before I even thought about pictures.

Back in the late 80's-early 90's, It was a 76 Cutless...big ass boat, got off though.

I do however have pics and links to some of my work....

Re: Project "Rock-a-Billy".....Saga Continues.....

Whats up guys ? I used to have a 1953 Chevy Wagon,all re chromed bumpers, grill ,it had skirts, visors ,and spot lights. That thing was nice . I was driving it to the good guys one time and it ran out of gas right around the corner from my house. I filled it up and noticed my water pump leaking. I was pissed. I drove it home. I wound up selling for $3000.00 !!!
The leson learned, never sellyour car when your pissed.
