Wow. Very impressed, this thing is awesome. Hit up the drag strip when you get the tune done, I want to see what it does!

Not much progress. Bumped up to a 325/50 tire in the rear. Waiting on a cowl scoop to show up.

You did a great job on this truck. Awesome build. Did you just get those decking boards from Home Depot or Lowes? I like you can flip up the board to fill the fuel cell.

this thing is pure awesomeness. Stance, patina, engine, everything is perfect. And the wood bed just puts the icing on it.

BTW I remember following your old LUV build on S10 forum years ago. Used to talk to you a bit about it when I had my SBC s10

Nope i sold it this past may. Not sure if the guy that bought it is on this forum or not but he has read the build thread. I sold it as a roller. Hes doing some cool **** with it. Im working on an s10 now, about to start a thread.
