Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Well its done. I'll let you know what I think here shortly but in the meantime it looks so naked without the clutch pedal
 I'll have to patch in the hole for the shifter but for now I'm going cruising

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Attention... Attention... Shawn will be unavailable for an unspecified time due to a life changing truck transition. This time is a very fragile time that may be spent endlessly cruising at highway speeds or doing smokey burnouts on vacant back roads. He will return when he has adjusted sufficiently... or his gas tank is empty... or his rear tires are without tread. That is all!

700r4 is a nice upgrade, did you get a chance to check your mileage compared to the 350 tranny?
