Re: Project Ru5tyNut5

Re: Project Ru5tyNut5
well, my tank is going to have to be put in about the same spot as Dan's '52's tank so it's going to be kind of exposed for a bit until I put the bed floor in so I'd rather it look a little bit nice at least.

Re: Project Ru5tyNut5
knowing how I want to do it isn't the problem, paying for it is.

Re: Project Ru5tyNut5
I'm going to see what I can find for fuel cells that might fit where I want and try to figure something out unless it's outrageous, then I might go that route

Re: Project Ru5tyNut5
hmm, kind of hard to see I guess. there's more than what I have on that spreadsheet too, I'm just too lazy to add them all.

Re: Project Ru5tyNut5
Increase the mag. bottom right of your screen turn it up to 400 then you can see it easy. I'm kinda old so I just leave mine on 125 all the time.

Re: Project Ru5tyNut5
anybody got a timing light that lives near me? I don't know jack about motors but I emailed the guy I bought my truck from some pics of it now so he could see all the changes and he said......"oh by the way, I'm pretty sure I retarded the timing 5 degrees before I put it up for sale so you might want to advance it 5 degrees."

Re: Project Ru5tyNut5
the truck runs great so I don't think I "NEED" to do it at all. The guy I got it from is a mechanic in Lincoln City, that's where all the rust came from.. He did the motor, trans, and rear end. The motor is supposed to be a pretty fresh GM Performance Parts 350hp 350ci with around 5k - 6k miles. TH350 trans with a stage 2 shift kit, and a 3:42 posi rear end. that's why I bought the truck, it definately wasn't for all the rust.

Re: Project Ru5tyNut5
good times at Johnny's 'Ol Skool Motorcycles today, a couple little sprinkles but it wasn't too bad at all. My phone died soon after I got there due to my daughter playing massive amounts of games on it so I wasn't able to get much as far as pics, but it was cool. I was among the first to arrive and only got one pic of my truck there before my daughter killed my battery, and it isn't a very good pic.
