Since you don't already have 8's, get some of those aftermarket 10" wide wheels w/5" BS. They would look even better back there.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild

My brother in law is in Orlando at Universal Studios and he texted me this pict titled..."This is what you should build now" I think is cool that they have this truck on display there, like they did years ago with the other cars from the Fast and the furious....

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild

Al,
That's a pure sweetheart you've got there.

Could you post some pics of your interior please? Also if it's not asking too much, a shot of your tailgate.

I thought long and hard about going with the black and white two tone and finally the spid won out, stock solid black.

Those pics of your truck with the rallies tipped me over also, been wafflin' on rallies or Cragar SS's. I think a set of Cragars just won out! Ha Ha

Good luck with the sale of your bike, can't wait to see what you end up doing with a 67 or 68!

Love that Zuke! 1300?! How fast have you gotten it? I'm looking into getting my first bike and I want a CBR 600 or something of that nature.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild

Dylan my busa went 192mph on the gps on a 9/10ths of a mile from a 30 mile per hour rolling start which it is a kind of racing we do down here in south florida. I sold it because I was riding kind of crazy and I am too old for that.
