Re: Blackbird

Hey fellas, not tryin to beat a dead horse but the new owner of Blackbird sent me this today and I just had to share. Says he drives it every day and when he goes to a car show he parks it on the street across from the show on purpose. LOL

Love that truck! Badass to see it being driven daily. One of my favorites. I never heard how much it sold for? On ebay right?

Re: Blackbird

Del, Did you do the rear mount gas tank with the flip up bed slat on this one to? Did you make that kit on the first truck or did you get it from somewhere?

Geez missed this one. Both trucks I used cabinet hinges and built the mounts etc myself. It's actually pretty easy and cheap.
