Dave,

you sold the house because you couldn't pay for it and now you are doing all this. What's up? Don't tell me you made enough money off the sale to do all this. Especially after giving the wife her half. Of course I know it's cheaper to live with Mama, but Dayum.

Oh, and what has this got to do with 73-87 trucks?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

actauly it will, just not the outside those whouldn't be hard to mount though, its when you take them off a vette and you have to deal with the pressure sensors that it is a bit tricky

Dave,
What year is the T/A ? Those would look sick on a 77- 80 Firebird with the factory hood emlem (giant bird) and shaker hood. But my guess is that its much newer car, right?

Plus you're not paying a rent/house payment either, I bet that helps a ton. Now get your bucket down here so I can do the body mods. BTW my local guy can get the cab corners and tail fillers.

I got them from a guy that bought them from AFSwheels.com but he needed money and didnt ever mount them. You can win auctions with tires/wheels for under 1500 but typically its under 1700. They would look awesome on your FRC .
