Re: Mesquite 1966 C10

Awesome shop!! I can't wait to get mine going, but unfortunately it won't be that size!

I noticed the model aircraft.....one of my hobbies as well. Getting a few flights in every once in a while helps to take my mind off of not having the $$ or shop to work on the truck sometimes.....

I'll be visiting this thread regularly, keep it up!

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Mounted rear end, installed shocks, out of parts should have the rest of the air ride parts next week.
