Thank you for sharing the pictures.

Thanks. I hope your guys' turns out great. If it's the truck in your avatar I'd say you've got a pretty good foundation to build off.

bobbo · 06-28-2008, 07:58 AM

Good luck with the maiden voyage to Kansas City!

kyull67 · 06-28-2008, 10:07 AM

It's raining but I think I'm going to go anyway!

kyull67 · 06-28-2008, 07:02 PM

Pictures from today. I made it to Blue Springs with no problems. The first half of the 185 Mile trip sucked because I was driving in a thunderstorm. Other than that it was fun. The truck has absolutley no problem passing people either.

My dog even likes it!

**Boog** · 06-28-2008, 07:21 PM

Well alright Kyull. The first road trip and no surprises, no glitches. It's a winner!

kyull67 · 06-28-2008, 08:21 PM

I like to think so too!

**Palf70Step** · 06-28-2008, 10:33 PM

Looking good!

toomanytoyz · 06-28-2008, 10:41 PM

Congrat's, You Pulled it Off Well....................

I bet the Long Hard Road To get to this Point felt pretty Good Today when you were Rolling Down the Road.

He probably didn't have the time to swap heater cores yet.

Truck looks GREAT Kyle! I bet it felt good to drive it.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 06-29-2008, 07:52 AM

Looks great congrats man it must feel so good to get to driver her....

thirdstreettito · 06-29-2008, 09:03 AM

Nice, I have watched/read this build since it was posted, lovin it.

kyull67 · 06-29-2008, 05:32 PM

Thanks for all the compliments and yes, It does feel pretty good to actually drive it especially passing people on the highway.

I just made it back from Kansas City with no problems and the truck now has about 380 miles on it.

72BlckButy · 06-29-2008, 09:17 PM

Glad to hear that you didn't run into any issues on your trip over the weekend. I was really hoping to make it to the show on Saturday, but we decided to head back early after meeting with kingsolver72 and tcb-1. I hope to be able to see that truck in September... (hint hint)...

So everyone wants to know.... how many heads did you turn: 1.) when passing all those other vehicles? and 2.) running the inline 6?

BACKYARD88 · 06-29-2008, 11:27 PM

Congrats Kyull, that first show makes it all worth while

Spray-Bomb · 06-29-2008, 11:40 PM

Sweet !!!!!!!!

samwise68 · 06-29-2008, 11:59 PM

Excellent man! Congrats on the first road trip going smoothly.

Yeah, we all want more details.

haha.

-Sam.

gcburdic · 06-30-2008, 07:59 AM

Great JOB Kyull!!!.....That must feel awesome man!!!

bobbo · 06-30-2008, 08:17 AM

Great to hear you had no problems!

Was kinda worried with a fresh engine but I know the machinists' work, so I was sure everything would go well.

Richard8971 · 06-30-2008, 11:56 PM

Hey Krull-miester. "master of the spray"... truck looks sweet dude! Glad you got it running too. Keep us posted as you get more stuff done.

kyull67 · 07-01-2008, 09:44 PM

Well, I'm not happy with how it turned out anymore so I decided to start over...

NOT!!!! I just wanted to post up some before pictures!

caja_larga · 07-02-2008, 03:34 AM

We used IMCO turbo mufflers. They don't sound right and I'm having them put different ones on. I want my truck loud though.
