Re: front e-brake cable?

another member told me about inline tube they have all the brake lines i need thanks .here is some more photos.this truck was a old drag racer.bought it with a blown up 468 there was a nitrous gauge on the dash i guess that would explain the bad motor. i installed a 509 merlin3 new th400 6 and 1/2 drop in rear and 3 and 1/2 up front,tubbed out .the photos of the truck in yellow are when i first bought it,the truck will look the same but all black.

Re: front e-brake cable?

Man this truck is even cooler now. Do you have any specs on how it was dropped front and rear? Also, 2nd to last picture, is that an aluminum firewall?

Glad you found what you were looking for. Actually found a local 400 tranny with a brake on it and all the hardware, but guy wasn't willing to do any shipping. Kill 2 birds with one stone and called him for you lol

forgot to mention the p.o cut the coils front and rear then installed rubber and steel extensions in between the coil to raise the rear because the axle was hitting the frame.the suspension had no travel at all front or rear.

Not sure honestly. I tried looking for the ad again and wasn't able to find it to take a look.
