farmtruck is all about deception not style
besides radrods are all the rage but you cant realy call them pretty either

lets just say farmtruck spend the money where it does the most good : under the hood

Glad to hear you are OK and ready to get back into the truck project. Can't wait to see it on the track again.

jgh64pkup · 09-23-2015, 05:35 PM

Did you ever get this painted?

djracer · 09-27-2015, 07:43 PM

It is still in paint shop prison. I am motivated to get it back going so I am gonna push the paint shop. They just got a new paint booth and they want to get it installed and paint my truck in the new booth!

57sailplane · 10-04-2015, 02:39 PM

have you got the one piece side glass figured out. i was going to do the same thing but havnt figured it out yet..

djracer · 10-10-2015, 08:40 AM

I am not sure which way to go yet. I may put vent windows in it as a black truck and a fire suit is gonna be really hot!

djracer · 12-05-2015, 07:52 PM

Cross your fingers for me guys I may actually have a painted truck in a few weeks.

watahyahknow · 12-05-2015, 08:08 PM

just make sure you dont do a daddy dave after its finally done

**regan wilson** · 12-06-2015, 08:37 AM

That was just wrong! Cant wait to see it Kevin.

djracer · 12-07-2015, 09:42 AM

I won't be racing on an U prepped track I can promise you. I don't even think I am gonna run without concrete retaining walls! My wife will be my biggest supporter as long as I don't get hurt. I may even try to get a Hans device. I know I want an onboard fire system!

watahyahknow · 12-07-2015, 07:15 PM

from wat i heared during the show on tv that one of the nitrousbottles let loose and hit him in the shoulder , you can actually see the bottle take off like a rocket in the footage of the accident
on other fotos i saw that the tabs holding his seatbelts where broken , i think daddy dave took it a little to far in the as light as possible department and taken too mush out of the safety department

later on saw that the crow had been hit during a run and is now totaled too , not his fault though , the guy next to him crossed lanes and hit his rearquarter causing him to hit the grass and roll a few times , he said he was still alive because he had the cage build by profesionals that showed him the misstakes the former builder made and totally redid the cage
think those engines there using make 1800 hp depending on their tune

youre truck launched pretty straight with the old engine i just hope youre newer bigger engine doesnt overpower the tires
did you done anything new to the 502 ?

68Timber · 12-07-2015, 08:19 PM

Good to hear Kevin, hope to see it run at MMP soon.

djracer · 12-08-2015, 12:20 AM

I have made some improvements to the chassis and hope it will have allot better 60ft. My new motor is 80 more inches and a much better combination. I have a much nicer fogger and a plate. My goal is to run 7's in the quarter.

djracer · 12-14-2015, 02:08 AM

Body shop says they hope to spray cab tailgate skin and roll pan Thursday night!

djracer · 12-14-2015, 02:35 AM

3years 8 months at the paint shop. I looked back and I had posted a pic when I dropped it off at the Paint & Body Shop. I still won't have the doors and front clip but I will be happy just to have the rest painted and back home so I can get the powder coating done. I can also put the motor and tranny in and start building hedders.

aggie91 · 12-14-2015, 02:46 PM

That is forever in a body shop. Hope you got a good deal on the work.

watahyahknow · 12-14-2015, 03:49 PM

he better be or the work should be outstanding
doing it "in between jobs "ok but its starting to get ridiculous

djracer · 12-15-2015, 08:02 AM

It better look really sweet!

kpeztruck · 12-15-2015, 09:48 AM

Kevin, I got a head and neck restraint when I started running 5.00 index in the Monte Carlo. Here is a link.http://www.defnderneckbrace.com/
I have used it for several years now, and like it.

djracer · 12-16-2015, 02:33 AM

Sweet I probably need one of those and a better fire suit!

djracer · 12-16-2015, 09:48 AM

Getting ready for a long time Homecoming! 3 years eight months and 3 day to get half of the truck out of paint! The shop is supposed to paint the cab tailgate and roll pan tomorrow night!
