I picked then up on ebay for like $20 i think its just a led at the top and the bottom and i just taped in to the parking lights so when the parking lights are on the rings are on, its a 2 wire hook up.

(( info on the 3rd page i think ))

haha Disregard my last post i didnt read

mr mike · 09-28-2012, 03:56 AM

Well it looks like the old 327 is needing a rebuild, it's blowing oil out the valve covers the front seal and the dip stick. I am thinking a junk yard 350 for now until the rebuild.
Its a sad day but that's why we do what we do drive it hard have some fun and spend some money.

Square_78 · 09-28-2012, 07:20 AM

Thats a cool truck man. Did you ever figure out the camber issues? I was thinking putting in some longer bolts for the upper a-arms and using more shims on mine.
