Re: First timer here, just trying to build a cool truck and not kill myself

Been awhile since last update, and things have happened.
My parts came in for the disc brake conversion and suspension lowering, I got my heads lights working and the carburetor was rebuilt and running good. Then I found a guy looking to trade his v8 for an Inline-6 on CL and I jumped on it, meeting up one weekend for him to hear my engine run and then he brought the engine over the next weekend. So my winter project has grown from lowering and disc brakes to now include a drivetrain swap! The 350 SBC is from a '71 Chevy truck and will mate up with the TH400 I got in the original truck deal. Now I just got to figure out how all the parts will fit...
