72BlckButy · 09-03-2007, 09:11 AM

Engine looks great! It's always cool when you have some of the original paperwork.

What else is instore for the truck?

berencam · 09-03-2007, 10:41 AM

umm bodywork and paint in store next, most all mechanical is done kinda on a small budget and no garage to do the work myself

FRENCHBLUE72 · 09-03-2007, 12:56 PM

I have that same engine in my blazer and its been pretty good to me...

Jtrux · 09-03-2007, 06:12 PM

It's a good engine, I am planning a cam swap soon along with a truck avenger carb to give it a little extra boost.

berencam · 09-04-2007, 10:30 PM

new seat, and some cosmetic work on the front end today also have factory side mirrors on thier way. gatta batterys for my camera. so pics tomorrow?using vinal paint on the seat to paint it black with gray trim(entire seat will be black and the passenger and driver seat spot will be gray).

glock35ipsc · 09-04-2007, 11:58 PM

Looks great in there, and it's always cool to see the original paperwork too! But please ditch that glass fuel filter. I would hate to see that thing burnt to the ground. Fourteen years in the fire service, I've seen it happen.

berencam · 09-05-2007, 12:52 AM

what would you recommend you go with instead of the glass one? after all im only 20 and dont know everything just yet (got one year to go till i know everything i think...... hah kidding)

berencam · 09-05-2007, 04:15 PM

LOL, I like that one!!

Anything but the glass one. If that is 3/8" fuel line you are using, just go to the parts store and ask for a universal 3/8" in-line fuel filter. I prefer the metal ones myself, but that's just a personal preference. There are plastic ones as well.

berencam · 09-05-2007, 08:27 PM

finished with the paint on the vinal seat. came out purty good i think

berencam · 09-06-2007, 02:09 AM

almost forgot the bowtie....

berencam · 09-06-2007, 08:56 PM

looking for a set of headers for the truck, am i going to run into clearance issues or will any size headers work?

GREASEMONKEY72 · 09-06-2007, 09:02 PM

i recommend the metal inline fuelfilters

seat looks pretty cool

samwise68 · 09-06-2007, 09:06 PM

nice looking build you have going on. i like the look of your truck. i dunno why...

and i like the seat. it adds a bit of random class to it, if you ask me.

-Sam.

berencam · 09-12-2007, 02:01 AM

no more pics for a while and no more progress my truck got broke into and stereo equipment, cds, lots of tools, and my camera was stolen.

Gray Ghost · 10-15-2007, 07:44 PM

Sorry to hear that, I hate thieves with a passion.

berencam · 10-18-2007, 12:04 AM

yea i also realized bout 2 weeks later they stole my credit card that i carelessly left in the truck, so needless to say it got maxed, so im dealing with that now also. i cant do a darn thing on my truck at the moment i think i have 20 assorted tools total now lol. so first ill have to get a toolset then i can continue
