-Eventually I want it to be magazine quality and uner the hood never looks good on these trucks becuase of all the wiring and fuse boxes etc.
-I love old trucks and wish mine was one
-The theme of my bulid is "rat rod"
-Theres alot more dress up parts for small blocks over a 5.3 or 6.0
-If i dropped a 5.3 in it, it would be just another bagged rcsb with a 5.3


...yep
The truck looks like it will be nice when finished. I say these are all great reasons. Even if you didn't have any reasons it is still your truck and its cool to see something different. Keep up the good work and let us know when you get a build thread going.
