Re: pictures
 If you look near your picture (under or beside it depending on the view) you'll see the options shown here. Click on the IMG Code line and it should copy, otherwise, right click and copy then paste that in the message and, viola!

Re: updated pictures
Thanks for the tips on posting pictures. This is the day i picked up the truck.
Start of tear down  Down to frame  On the rear end i boxed and c notched the frame, put in a four link with a comaro rear end    Installed an aluminum feul tank in the rear  The day i picked up motor from engine builder. It's Just a 350 four bolt main with an xe 262 h comp cam, fueler 194 heads, Edlebrock performer intake with a 600 cfm carb.  This is the day I picked up the trans from the tanny builder. It's a turbo 350 thats been upgraded with high performance parts,shift kit, and a 2500 stall converter.

Re: update pictures continue
working dents out oround head lights
  Front clip assembled  That's what I have done to this point. I stll want to put in an access panel in floor for the battery, Shave all the holes in the fire wall, And straighten out the bed side panels, For wheels and tires I think I want to go with 18x8.5 in the front and 20x10 in the rear. I really like the ( Eagle alloy 225 series ). For color maybe Turqoise. |

Re: pictures
Thanks; I wish I could say I did all the welding. You can see in the pictures I had the cross members, hats and box plates mocked up but decided to have a pro weld them in. I did weld the motor mounts and made the trans cross member. As for the grill I think I'm going to have it chromed because I hear the re production grills don't fit.
