Me and MBL did a lot of things since that last update, but I still need the top upholstered, and put the glass in, but it's pretty much done!

That flathead is badass too! Obnoxious as hell!











The battery box...It's appropriate for some of the luck we had...so I figured it must carry around a box of the stuff...

 

that is awesome!! nice job!!

 

Thanks dude...We worked hard on it... It's not perfect, but I love it.

 

What a sweet little truck! Looks you've be having a ton of fun this summer!

 

looks fun as hell man.

 

that thing is pretty sweet, nice and simple but not thrown together...looks like a hot rod to me...joe

 

Neat truck! I have one waiting in the wings to be built.

 

Very cool... that pickup has some real soul.

What do you mean it ain't perfect?Looks it to me,cool ride.

 

Thanks guys!

It's a strong runner...I'll have MBL put up the video he took of the "test drive" around the yard.

It sounds like a race car!

The flattie is a 51 merc, 4" crank, ported and relieved, original Sharp heads, Offy dual intake, two 97's, "3/4 race cam" (whatever that actually means), and an msd distributor and coil.

It's gonna be loads of fun!

 

Yeah..it was really cool finally getting to drive the truck...now on to the next one.

that thing is awesome

 

Can't see the pics at work, (I'll look at home tonight) but I've seen it before.

Congrats on the first drive, soon you'll be trollin' for some circus freak/carny 'tang.

 

What makes you think that I'm not allready?

 

The truck will definitely help in your 'TangQuestTM, looks good.

 

Thanks Mike!
