[HARDCORECASH]

Looks awesome!!! Great inspiration!!! I have got a few more projects to finish up and then will be starting on my 67 C10. I have the No Limit chassis pack sitting on the floor ready to go on.......

Very clean!

Got the engine and trans in and rolled it outside to clean up the garage a bit



Got the cab and doors losely fitted, the trans didnt clear the factory tunnel so I had to cut it out. I have a high hump tunnel on the way that should work just right. I also have plenty of room between the engine and firewall so I am going to find some mounts that will let me slide the engine back an inch or so.



Disregard the ugly cuts, I just roughly cut it out until the new cover comes in. Then I will clean it up



Starting to look like a truck now! Next on the list is to get the front sheetmetal blasted and primed where i can get all the gaps set and measure for wheels.

Dirty Dingo mounts seem to have decent adjustability....

Starting to look like a truck again. Interested in seeing how the doors fit. Did the core support come from Nsane as well?

Looking good Blake, but what happened to that jack handle

[dkauffman05]

Looking great man ! I always look for updates on this build. Funny thing is I was wondering about the jack handle also.

Thanks guys, long story short on the jack a tree fell on it haha. I had a bunch of trees in my yard cut and didn't have a tractor or anything at the time to move the big logs. So i had the bright idea to cut the big stuff into 3-4 ft lengths and take a little trailer with a gate on it and roll the logs onto the gate then put a jack under the gate to lift it up level and roll the log on the trailer. All went well until I got an egg shaped log, a few hundred pound log rolled off and crushed it pretty good

Those look like they might actually work really good. They seem to be able to push back alot further than any others I have seen.

I cant give you a very good review yet because I am waiting on new door hinges but one looks like it is going to fit really really well and the other is going to need a very minor adjustment around the window frame. Dewayne had told me that I may run into a little trouble in that area but they have fixed that with the newer run of doors. I'm sure Dewayne would be glad to tell you more. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another pair, and yes the core support is from there as well.

[Low68]

Any updates? It is looking awesome!

[Gts78ta]

Hey guys, I have been off of the truck for a while doing a few other things. Over the past few weeks I have been working around the house some, took a trip to New England to visit my wife's family, and have been playing with my new daily some (Fiesta ST).

I have collected a few parts and plan to get back on the horse after this weekend and get some stuff done. I have an auto steering column and linkage to set up, some front end sheet metal, totally stainless bolt kit, and best of all WHEELS. I ordered Eagle 225 in 20x10 for all four corners. Its going to be tight but I measured over and over again and they should work out fine. Im hoping they will be here in a few weeks. Keep an eye out for more frequent updates in the coming months! Here is a pic of the wheel I went with for those that arent familiar.

[dkauffman05]

Cool wheel choice. I came so close to getting those myself.

[mcbassin]

Awesome progress on this build! Everything looks great.

[slowcpe]

nice wheels Those Fiesta STs look good. There's a red one by my office I keep admiring.
