Re: " Quality Time "

rolling with fresh shoes and socks!!!!!!!!!! I don't think it is low enough for my tastes and I will definitely need to try and fill the wheel wells a little more with an 8" / 10" wheel combo

Re: " Quality Time "

And she has been sitting on & off since I got shipped up to Va. (2) years ago... probably going to re-wire the whole truck and get rid of the 3ott. trying to avoid those pesky hang ups with the linkage driving down the road. Also thinking about ditching the 250 in favor of my 292 or build one of those big blocks laying around on my garage floor

Re: " Quality Time "

Been away for a few years but, now I am back. The ol' girl is soon to be moved to my garage (my old man wants his garage back). I had toyed with selling it to put money into my Camaro but, I love it too much.

I think I am just going to gather parts and build this 65' 396 that I have been sitting on for (15) years and drop it in..... sentimental value since it is the 1st bbc that I bought for myself. I hope all of you are doing well?

Re: " Quality Time "

I'm glad you're back with this thread, I have a 76 step side and am always looking thru the forum for inspiration. A 396 was my first big block as well, and it hurt a lot of feelings. Great looking truck, please keep us updated.

Re: " Quality Time "

That truck looks great! I took some time off the site my own self but check back now and again. Didn't think I'd see this one pop back up. Very cool little truck. I think the steelies are just right with the spare tire fender. You can get wide steels if you want to. Welcome back.
