You kids and your crazy hotrods neat project. keep it up!

 

Looks good.

 

thank you gentlemen. I appreciate it.

 

Wow......I like your work!!! Thank You for sharing and replying to all the questions. I can't wait for the next update.

 

will only be bolt on stuff the next few times. Front end parts mostly. But I will be building the pitman arm right after that. But I will keep it posted...

 

So. It has been awhile. Most of it was so boring we did not even bother to post it. That, and I was real busy on other projects. So here is an update.

I realize I forgot to post the pic of the assembled front end. I am short a few springs here. It is all assembled with spring sliders now.





I still have to mount/ build the brake lines on the rear axle. I want it loaded with the weight to be sure of where the line will go when the line and the rear suspension flexs



took out a few springs to reach the desired height with. Also bent the steering arms and placed them out back where they should have been.



engine is getting some attention right now. All painted and waiting on a few parts. Should have a few pix of that tomorrow.

 

Been even longer than the last time huh? Well, she drives now. Ignore the tires. Those are just for now. They will be all bias soon. Here are a few pix

















let me know if the video works please.

may want to do it soon then. The roof comes off for a trim soon!

 

did yea start the chop yet???

 

What are the rear springs and hangars? Also what steering box? nice truck!!!!!!!!!!

 

THe rear springs are out of the same truck as the motor/trans. A 1984 dodge ram mini truck. 2wd. The cowl steering box is rom a volvo 140. VERY fast steering. Feels like rack and pinion.

 

did you move already! You never stopped by! Does this answer your question?









There is a lot done to this. By the end of the weekend I should have the chop finished, and the tailgate done. It already has the bed wood installed with strips, and the grille finished. Also, changed out that steering wheel.

 

looking good man!!!!!! did you talk guy into painting it yet? or does he still wanna leave it as is?

and yea im down in San Diego now!!!! its pretty rad down here! there is a big car show here every wensday less then a mile from my place! an im digging all the sun lol!

Nope. But my guys will be there! We are going to paint it blood rear and black. Black grille, black interior, black headlight/tailights, black frame/steering/suspension and motor with a few trick parts on it. Just got he exhaust done to. 1.5 inch straight all the way out back.
