Have you put the dash and steering column in with the steering wheel and sat in it? I did a dash, and after I got it put together I had a hard...
State Troopers in Iowa are the only ones that seem to care if you don't run a front plate. They don't seem to care in the F100, or my work...

Good to see you working on the Roadster again. I had to get away from my project for awhile too.
Nice unibody! Welcome from Iowa.
I put a T-5 out of a Mustang in my 64 F100, but I still have a stock y-block. After I got the trans in, I went to install my seat, and the...
None with mine.
Would love to put a turbo on my y-block, but wouldn't even think about without fuel injection. Maybe you should contact Holley test it out for them.
I have Malcom's old truck. I can't go any lower that what its is. Its a 64, and the trans/rear motor mount drags sometimes. I think the 65's...
Cool truck. I bought mine for the same reason.
I saw it up there driving around, but never got the chance to look at it up close. It looked cool cruising. Street Rods are what got me into...
Would love to go, can't find anyone around here to go with.
Installed a T-5 in my truck this winter. A lot easier on the y-block, and fuel. I got 22 mpg going to Minnesota this year to Back to Fifties.
An article, so you don't have one or know much about them? Alot of people replaced them with a TH350 because there cheaper to build. Talk to a...
Just change the trans, and keep the same rearend and bolt pattern. And no, a 700-R4 is not stronger than a 200-R4. I have a stock 200-4R in a...
Welcome from Grimes, Iowa. I try and drive my truck as much as possible.
After Hot Rod Power Tour there is no way I would go if they moved it out there. There is no shade, and it took a half hour of standing in line to...
Thanks for the pictures Malcolm. Couldn't find my camera this weekend, so I didn't get a chance take any pictures of the truck.

Thanks for the pictures. Saw your trucked parked, but I never did see anyone around. Truck looks good.
Thanks for pictures. Had a great time this weekend. I am glad Goodguys keep coming back to Des Moines. I don't mind the late models. Gives me...

Truck looks good. Has a good stance.
I'll be there with the truck. First long trip, hopefully it doesn't let me down.
Thanks for the pictures. Wish the truck was done, and I could of made it.
