Exhuast need's to be run off the shorty block hugger header's before I start the engine. Gettin there . Check list to move the truck on it's own down to few item's.

[namloc]

Getting closer and closer every update.

It's funny, I'd never see a hubcap like yours till I saw this thread. Then 4 of these showed up for sale locally, still in the factory boxes, never installed. 1955 though, you said yours were 1960?

I did manage to get a bit of time in this weekend on the Bull .Not much Thuough, got the exhaust started .The first foot of the down tube's.

[namloc]

Piece by piece.Fab up exhaust front to back. This is alway's time consuming.There are very talented exhaust builder's out there though on my home garage floor I am not one of them.Especially on a bagged truck.

[namloc]

Right side exhaust together to midpoint of truck.

[namloc]

one last underhood install the detent cable bracket for the transmission tv cable.

Amazing looking work here.

Every hour you get is progress.

[namloc]

Got the lh and rh front exhaust pipe's done and hung.The goal is tuck up high and muffler's to the rear past the cab floor .

[namloc]

This is hour's into pipe's finally a muffler .More pipe to fab.to come.

[namloc]

The easy way out build a couple of stack's up thru bed floor.Just playin' around.Fab'd pipe's to flow out to side's to follow kickup and to rear of bed into corner's to dump.

Thank's Grizz.5 Minute's or 5 hour's a day the past 18 month's to get this point.

[namloc]

Just layin' some more pipe. I know these picture's are kinda boring though I have found that in the forum's we pick up subtle little helpful thing's in the picture's. Just need to trim and fit and finish off the tailpipe's. Install header flange to pipe gasket's maybe tip's and exhaust is done.

[Ronzo]

Looking good, nice progress.

[namloc]

rear pipe's together from mufflers back to rear behind bumper area.

[namloc]

Exhuast is all in and hung.Used Remflex gaskets at headers , pipe is 2.25" aluminized steel.Mufflers are Jones Exhuast.Moved suspension thru far and lowest position no interference.Front down pipes get close to the ground when aired down though.Might to redo those in future.

[namloc]

Went to fire the truck up today.Chased some leak's around though one at the carb would not stop. Got a little to gorilla like with this fitting.My day was done. For now.

[namloc]

Repaired the fuel feed into BG Demon carb. Ready again.

[CHIZZLER]
