Change of plans (again). Decided to pick up a strong running 350 out of a Chevelle from a buddy. I'm going to put this in and get it to the bodyshop to finish the truck up for the next owner.

Cleaning up the motor today.

Got the motor in, and pretty close to getting it fired up.

Wheels are back from the powdercoaters. 15x6.5" with Chevy Astro van centers with 235/75/15 up front.

She's back from the dead. Motor runs great and just got all four new tires mounted up with powdercoated rally wheels.

Off to the bodyshop later today...

shawno72 · 04-19-2013, 02:27 PM

She's looking good and at the same time looks like something I see every day

sighlurr · 05-06-2013, 09:54 PM

PB front shock relocators installed with KYB's.

shawno72 · 05-06-2013, 10:11 PM

That's what I need on my truck. I guess you just couldn't wait to install some PB stuff?

Back from paint today. It's amazing how little time I have with two little screaming mouths every 1.5-3 hours right now, around the clock. I was hoping to have paint done weeks ago.

Anyway, I need to pick up some bumpers and I think she's good to go.

shawno72 · 06-06-2013, 07:20 AM

Looks good. Do you have the measurements for the good letters?
