Re: The Snortin' bull

I like that.

More importantly, the blue inside the bumper has me thinking...... I did paint the insides of both my bumpers in silver, but red may now become an option. That looks great.

Thanks. Even though the truck is to look like an old farm rig it's still got to have details being a hotrod.

Re: The Snortin' bull

Even though the cab is tight and rust free.The corner supports had a thud sound to them.They where packed solid with dirt.It bugged for sometime .Both side's now have extra drain's.

Re: The Snortin' bull

Having time to rack the truck up in the air has been a relief the whole build had been on the ground.

Re: The Snortin' bull

Got 250 miles on it this past weeks. Doing so tuning and running a wide band to watch tune.,The Snortin' Bull has ball's flat out hual's. Moved the front license plate up, it looked like a tongue hanging out and cuaght the ground often.Parked next to my S-Duty it makes ford's look ugly.

I meant to say not a project for an LS style engine as this was all done with old style thought,
