the hood was beyond repair, but i think it had more to do with rust through and my dad walking on it as a kid, at some point during his visits to that farm.

not any damage to the roof other than some surface rust. i don't think those goats were too heavy.

Thanks everyone for all the kind words!

Looking good Straights. I think you will be very pleased with it once you get it on the road. You won't be winning many drag races with it but it will get you down the road just fine.

I'm running the same basic set up as Straights. Don't know where he got his stuff but I got mine intake, headers, HEI dist and carbs from Langdon's Stovebolts.

Here is a clip of mine running through 2 inch pipes and 14 inch turbo mufflers.

Straights, looks great. Like your style... Before you know it, you'll be grinn'n ear to ear cruisin down the road.

I have a bumper you may want, send me a pm.

CJ Steak · 11-11-2009, 05:55 PM

hkestes... that engine sounds great! Certain Turbo mufflers and Flowmaster 40's (the original ones) really sound great on inline sixes.

50stude p/u · 11-11-2009, 06:02 PM

I just figured out what I want for my next project. (dammit! no! you need to get the truck on the road!!) I like the hopped up 6s, they look awesome. (you have no money!!) I'm gonna go craigslist now. (get a job first you idiot!!!) Shut up brain.
