Re: project 68 step side

WOW, the first thing i see is an arias hemi headed BB chev, WOW, i have only ever seen one of those, and as you say, in a boat, great looking project and buil, love the originality in the engine choice, not your everyday, and by the way, i think the hole in the hood might be a littl intimidating to some in their rear view mirror.

Re: project 68 step side

nice clean polished exhaust, if i had food and was closer i would be eating off of those, anyways what drop do you have in the front of your truck, because i see a set of QA1 shocks, wondering the part number of those, way better than drop shocks.

Re: project 68 step side

I'm signing on for this build! I'd have to say this is one of the most interesting builds to date I've seen, and the first Chevy Hemi I've ever seen. It's looking great man, can't wait to see the finished product! Any ideas on wheels yet?

I have to ask...how much did that exhaust cost you? It is beautiful. I love the vbands but I know that wasnt cheap.

Re: project 68 step side

Nice build. I haven't seen an Arias motor in a while. They were once pretty common in pulling trucks and tractors. For you guys that aren't familiar with Arias take a look here- LINK

I've never even heard of those motors, very unique choice. Nice build you've got going on there.

Re: project 68 step side

Awesome, I love those arias motors. the last thing you would expect in a truck. Cant wait to see it run. And thats a lot of coin to spend on exhaust, but it sure looks great!
