Uncharted Territory
After 20 plus years building off road trucks I recently purchased a 1947 3800grain truck with the intention of hot rodding it. It's hard to change from lifting a truck to creating a ground hugger. So far I have the truck stripped and the ifs from a 77 3/4 ton narrowed and bolted in. I have acquired a TBI 454 and NV4500 waiting in the corner.
I just wanted to say hello and I am sure I will be back often for tips and advice! |

Re: Uncharted Territory
Hey welcome to the best board around from MT! Sounds like an awesome project. Boy what a change though from lifted to lower. Do you happen to have any pics of any of the lifted trucks you had or did? I am all about the lifted truck scene

Re: Uncharted Territory
Looks like you've built some decent rigs, can't wait to see what you can do with the '47.
