Got the truck running last night! Here are some shots of it parked in the front yard..... Nobody has called the cops yet! (open headers) Man, I need a beer to celebrate!

ebfabman · 08-21-2002, 07:59 PM

I can't wait to see that truck all painted and all together.

Love that color!!!

stllookn · 08-21-2002, 08:32 PM

WQW! Like John Force used to say..."Ain't it excitin!"

PanelDeland · 08-21-2002, 08:56 PM

Wish I had room and $$$ to do a frame off.
Thanks for flying the Flag>

Slammed67 · 08-21-2002, 09:03 PM

Hee hee hee... just took her for a spin around the block! It died halfway up the street....... forgot to turn on the electric fuel pump switch :p Man that was cool....... can't wait to get the rest of the body on.

Power Trip · 08-21-2002, 09:24 PM

Slam that is F@#kin' awsome lookin' I love the way it looks so far. Just how low off the ground r u in the pic? If you like the way it sounds with open headers then here is a link to checkout. http://www.quicktimeperformance.com/...atalog_gmt.htm go down to Quick Time Electric Cutout and Flowtech Cutout 3" Package. This will allow you to go open headers at a flip of a switch. It's something that I plan on doin' it myself. Well nice work so far keep it up.

*racedvl* · 08-21-2002, 09:48 PM

That's awesome!!!! I love firing up a truck for the first time!! Exp. when it's open headers!!! hehehe

PrimeredThunder · 08-21-2002, 10:16 PM

I know the feeling! I just broke-in my fresh 350 about a month ago with open headers...talk about LOUD!

Nothing compares to the exhaust pulses pounding against the ground and shakin n' rattlin' everything within sight! Luckily for me nobody called the cops! Congrats on the milestone in your trucks progress, can't wait to see her all finished and dialed in!

congrats sweet truck

**Yukon Jack** · 08-22-2002, 09:46 AM

That's bad azz!

kxmotox247 · 08-22-2002, 12:32 PM

Damn....that's going to be sweet!!!

Nothing like firing up a fresh vehicle for the first time. Always makes me a little nervous but it sure is exciting!

Looks like it's going to sit really mean!

**smitty62** · 08-22-2002, 01:20 PM

Just curious--how do you get it in and out of the driveway without tearing something up?

Slammed67 · 08-22-2002, 01:43 PM

Smitty62: The truck has air bag suspension. In the pictures, the bags are completely deflated. When I drive the truck, I'll just raise it up by adding air to the bags.

justin · 08-22-2002, 02:20 PM

Glad to here you got your truck fired up! That thing is going to bad to the bizone!
Unfortunatly I haven't had time to do squat on my G-ride, Still hoping to make it to goodguys in October though!!

**DREW67** · 08-22-2002, 02:23 PM

So that was you making all that noise last night. Great job....! I knew I should have came by last night.

Mudder · 08-22-2002, 02:24 PM

needing steps and what kind are kind of out of the question here.LOL. Very nice!

justin · 08-22-2002, 02:32 PM

The only steps needed for these trucks are"SUPER STEP NOTCH" of the frame.

Great look so far. I like the firewall. I've done the same filling in the factory holes but have much further to go than you. Good work!
