    Bad ass and beautiful in one complete package.
    I like all the little things you did to it l... the exhaust exits and especially the grille cover. Two Fours!!! Man you be careful with that much power.
    I see two fuel tanks??
    Hell of a job!

    Your truck rips. Glad to finally see it so close to finished - I know it's been a long road.

    Super mean without having to resort to lame gimmickry. It's not super chopped, it's not super low or channeled. You've just nailed it all.

    Ha ha ha thanks Dave....

    this truck had a big influence(among others),Shine,The rolling bones fellas,Littleman,Mike Zenor's coupe and every unknown hero building hotrods out there.
    I saw this a few years back and it just spoke to me.

    I have seen it person a few times and I love so many aspects of it....

    I was wondering if you have a photo album or other site with all your build photos posted, other than the 4 posts I've found on the Hamb? Gary

    Wow, awesome truck, but not one typical HAMB bash on anything but the axle???
    Okay then, my two little nit picks.....I think it would look better with black radiator hoses
    and black plug wires. I can't stand that ribbed shit. That was pretty harsh, huh?
    Haha, really, great job. I hope my 5W turns out as nice.

    Trying to find black rad hoses for this application is next to impossible..... but I am looking.This monster is literally shoehorned in and there is no space.For now it was my only option.
    I have new black wires yet to be installed with 426 boots.

    The rad supports were bent the old fashioned way..... over a log.

    Jeff... you magnificent bastard.

    That truck looks amazing - and the color just sprained my eyeballs onscreen - can't imagine what it'll do in person - since surely we'll be seeing this pickemup in Austin, yeah? Heck I know a pretty good local Texas pinstriper by the name of Franco that can lay down some good looking lines.

    Congrats - I know it must feel great to have it nearly done. You really nailed it with this one.
