Re: tn66step

Welcome aboard! Nice truck! Its your ultimate choice, but in my opinion....the 350 is boring to see anymore...to many out there...Great engine don't get me wrong...but no longer unique.

Re: tn66step

found you a big back glass this morning, rick has one but not sure when we can get it, you might want to swing by there and check with him when you get a chance he said he would probably have to sell the whole cab, he didn't want to cut it up. might be better than what we have, might just fix it.

Re: tn66step

it actually belongs to one of my best friends, jody. I am trying to get him to do this, but his wifes been having some health issues and hasn`t had time to do much lately. the motor is actually the first motor that was in my red truck and we have dressed it up quite a bit, endurashine intake, march pulleys, elite valve covers and breather. hopefully he can get some free time and start posting some more pictures, truck is completely disassembled and he bought a donor cab for a future big back glass conversion, cant wait till we get to cruise the rod run in both of them...

Re: tn66step

Very cool Flip!
Just saying, if that motor runs as good as it looks, it will be NO sled!
I hope that everything works out well for him & the wife.
it will be awesome to cruise with a freind that has the same interests!
Looking forward to this build.
