I like the shotgun air cleaner. I wanted to put that on mine. I think you will have to put a cowl hood or cut an opening.

Happy Easter guys. Got some work done today. I remove the ridges on the steps and started reinstalling the slick plate. Got to go slow to avoid warping. Install my new rear light. They are off a corvette and fit great. I think.

Later

Thanks cflvulcan, your hood looks good. The body line carries down the front not like the others you can buy. Im thinking of building one myself. think something like the hood on the new camaro. Something not to square, side angled a little like first picture. I would like to make it like the second 2 pics but not shure about the look.

Nothing like taking apart a good looking truck only to make it better.Very nice build, love the wheels. Question , where is the gas tank from?
