  4. Did you heat the shop with the old wood from the Chevy?:eek: Nice wood stove.:D Bitchen project, my 18 year old nephew(youngrodder1929) started building a 29 Chev truck, but I found him a 33 Chev cab, that was much better shape. He's progressing along, very well too. Can't wait to follow along on his Caddy flathead build, for it.

    i just turned 21, traded my 31 roadster pickup for this project...sometimes i think it was a dumb idea, but living in CO, i want to drive my toy as much as possible,

    so i got the f-100. it has a malibu subframe, a MEAN 357 chebby witha gennie shifted th400. just got some cool 17" steelies for it and started welding in the frame notch earlier this evening to make way for the airride. the goal is to run high 13's low 14's in the quarter and lay runningboard on the way home....haha yeah, im young alright

    I'm not in high skool, and probably too stupid for college, so I dunno how well I fit in. Anyway, I built my '63 GMC last winter, and this winter I,m gonna try to get together a '27 Ford RPU. Still undecided on that though. May go more of a dirt tracker influenced 'bucket. But definitely a sixties vibe. It will be really low on A rails. I have the 11:1, Duntov 30-30 cammed 327 and four speed ready to go. Still have to accumulate some parts, but I hope to have it done for next summer.

    The GMC:
