Re: purgatorio
How does his price compare to Tre5, now that you are more than half way finished?

I've heard tre5 is expensive... you wouldn't believe what I'm in for this truck in just labor and tube work and sheet metal.

Re: purgatorio
Your truck is looking incredible and I think the rear tire to fender looks good. Wouldn't change a thing.

What are your plans for paint and powertrain?

thank you appreciate the compliment. I bought a t56 magnum case for mock up so t56 6 speed for tranny. Small block chevy twin turbo for motor. Im looking at the gale banks twin turbo system. its more affordable to me then getting turbonetics turbos, hogans intake etc.. the kit has everything you need. I'm running the moser m9 with 370 gears and 35 spline axles.

Nice!

It's the little subtle touches most people don't see, but makes the truck stand out from the rest!
