    Wow! I'm jealous. Nice job Jeff.

    I'll admit I wasn't too keen on you "rechopping" the cab a couple years ago, I thought that the even shorter roof would make it look out of proportion.

    I was Wrong! :eek::)

    I think it's a model. This should be in the Sunday Model thread. Let's see a picture of Jeff sitting in it.

    Jeff ... your truck is the "Bitchin'est!"

    Is that a word? ... if it isn't, it should be ... and the dictionary entry should have a pic of your truck next to it!

    Jeff,
    The truck is awsome! Who made the headers? Those are flathead oil cannisters used for the collectors, right?
    Bring it to Brantford this Sunday, show 'em what a hot rod is supposed to look like:D.

    Wow, unbelieveably nice truck! I see a lot of unique and difficult to do touches every time I look at the pics. I just finished mine and it looks like a stocker next to yours. Congrats!

    Let the beating begin.
    Yep, they are....
    If it was possible....I would have used a 40 ford brake set up on the fronts...
    BUT The engine was built for extreme power.... I need adequate braking and the latter would not suffice.I just did not like the visual appeal of big ol' discs hanging out front.
    There is a few things that are not traditional in the sense..... but I could care less.I built it the way I wanted too.
    And thats all that matters.


    The engine the same as well.... I really tried to dress it "down".... I wanted a sense of stock appeal.There is nothing stock of any nature internally in that 392(now 422)

    The whole 8 years were a big "give and take" and some things just have to be settled.
    HotRods are NEVER done.... always performing a metamorphosis....
    some good,some bad.
    :)




    Hey Dave..... thanks for the kind words.... can't wait for us too hook up again!

    On every hot rod I see, I usually find something that I don't like or I would change. I've been staring at this truck every day now for a week and I can't find a goddamn thing wrong with it! I really love it! I also want to know what those front tires are!
