I hope I'm putting this in the right place, if not sorry.

My truck is for sale if anybody is interested. I'll take $20K for it turnkey.

Thanks,

Tom

The truck is real nice and has been real fast.

**68 Stepside** · 10-06-2004, 09:17 PM

Wow, hard to believe you're selling her. If I had 20k, she'd be in my garage. Best of luck selling her.

67chev · 10-06-2004, 10:20 PM

Awesome! I think that is the direction my truck is gonna end up going. Looking at the middle of next year to start the transition. Good luck on the sell!!!

We had an oil leak the only day I was at a 1/4 mile track and was getting oil on the left front tire. Did not seem wise to run it out the back. I imagine you would agree or would you still say slow truck or slow driver?

Actually we made a full pass on just a 175 shot and it went 9.28 @ 144 mph. When we turned the fogger on too it picked up 1/2 second in the 1/8 and 10 mph. so I figure it would have been a pretty sporty pass in the 1/4 when we coasted through @107, nearly 40 mph off the easy pass and still quicker.

The pics above are a bit out of date. The wing is gone along with the chute. The lettering is gone. The wheels have been changed to Bogarts. I'll try to put up some current pics. If anybody is serious about buying it, e-mail me and I'll send you some pics.

bigjimzlll · 10-07-2004, 09:37 AM

FirstGen · 10-07-2004, 03:07 PM

Simply amazing.... I guess that thing runs on race gas right?

The old motor did. The current small block runs pump gas for the street and ran a 5.93 1/8 mile on race gas and a 275 shot.

True Grit · 10-07-2004, 09:29 PM

awesome , simply , awesome.

Money is the main reason, but time as well. I tried to race limited street with the BBC combo and it was extremely fun but cost about $800 per race if nothing broke and that was a bit much for me. Then it wasn't really all that fun to slow down once you had gone that fast. Now it was the right decision because the limited street crowd is now running 5.0s and sometimes 4.90's which I definitely could not have afforded to do. That fast on W tires would be one thing, but that fast on a 29.5-10.5 non W tire is a whole different ball game. It takes the same motor that the outlaw 10.5 cars run to do it.
