Choprods--that sucker is turnin out pretty cool
Glen-- i LOVE that truck, but do ya think the wheel tubs are big enough???
all really cool rides guys, except you Rocky. whats wrong with you?? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif just kiddin ya man...
Mike
Yes, I know they are huge, but the tire is 32" tall and if you look at the pic above without tubs the tire is actually that high in the bed when down?
the above pic is ride height, here it is all the way down.

those 4.3 litre V6's in astro vans are tough little bitchs... family baught one brand new in 1986, and still runs like a champ.
I don't haul many parts in it any more because they fall through the big hole in the bed floor where the rear end comes through... But never the less here's my truck. http://photo.starblvd.net/tilly/3-3-2.jpg

Plan 9, the 4.3 is so strong because it is a 350 with 2 less cylinders, or so I'm told.

Thanks Radshit,
Camaro Clip, 351 Winsor with a C4, 5.5 and 8" Halibrands ( Fake Knock off's, that bothers me a little, but they look "right " on those wheels, so I'll deal )
It will be running in a couple of weeks, and after that I've got some Body mods planned.

Metalshapes, I cannot wait to see them finished!! From the sneak peek you gave me on your mock up ideas; all I can say is that it is going to be pretty nifty.

Poor pic, but my daily driver and shop truck is a '72 F-100 'Custom'.... Not much custom about it, however. It does have gun racks and a great radio that plays New Riders of the Purple Sage tunes.

Also pictured is the my dad's Ranchero, not very traditional either. http://photo.starblvd.net/hillbillyhellcat/1-4-3.jpg
