Re: Chevy 51" original Texas truck,,now in Holland
I am Always waithing for parts to come in
So I was a little bit bored, so started remodeling my garage
Had a lot of licence plates of the places that I visit with my work
So I put them on the wall.��





And I welded a New aluminium door, so the truck is now in my man cave����

Re: Chevy 51" original Texas truck,,now in Holland
You have a really nice man cave
Truck is going nice too!

Do you have your own dyno??
When I was young, I worked on the racebike of my neighbour, he raced Superbike 1000 cc 4-stroke in the early 80's. That were great times!!
Goodluck this weekend!!
Stay save!

Yes, the man cave / garage looks really good! As does the truck and the new differential.

Good luck with the racing!
