Default project 666

hey i have been working on this truck for about 3 years now, finally coming together, actually fired it up yesterday and i figured i would post up some pics, the truck is a 1966 chev with a 6.0 and a 4l80e tranny. its been an ongoing project with lots of interruptions nut it is alomst done now. here is alot of pics. it started out as a long bed and is now a short bed, the first few pics are old pics with a reg camera, before i got my digital one, so they are kinda crappy, but they get better

Awesome!

My dad is short boxing a 66 right now also. Unfortunately he is going old school SBC (because he has one already), and I haven't been able to talk him into a modern V8.

Maybe I can use your truck for inspiration.

That's badass my dad has a 63' shortbed. I tried getting him to toss in a 5.3 LSx, but he wants to use his reliable/simple vortec.

That's the first thing I noticed too. Shouldn't one be before the pump?
