A few more of the progress. Now would be the perfect time to drop a big block in this thing. Tommy (the guy doing the work on the 250 and painting the frame) has (6) of them laying around his shop. Dad has been talking about a 454 so, we may pick one up and drop it in his truck. Why do these things suffer from the " snowball effect "? You have to love snow tires on a 2wd short bed. Can you say low mileage farm truck anyone????? Fender mounted spare tires are the only way to fly for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
