Thanks guys,

She will be on the road soon.
Got to work on the bed too....
But I will drive her around town like you see her now.
Just to Church, cruisins, and car shows, and the local drag strip here.
Nope not going to race her....
Scared of scattering motor, trans, rear end, drive shaft....
She's a cruiser....

This is an awesome truck. The guy who owns this truck is a good friend of mine. He is also an exceptional painter. He did the paint and body work on my dad's 1957 Chevy truck a few years back. Lance now has a blown alcohol injected motor in this truck. These picture do not do justice to this truck.

Is he a member?
I can't believe he still owns it after all these years.

Edelbrock 41443 - Edelbrock Classic Finned Valve Covers

Maybe a JEGS 50065 - JEGS Dual Barrel Scoop
