Good lookin' build. The black Weld Draglites add a neat touch to it.

This is impressive. Very good work on this one James.

I've added the lower and upper radiator hoses and then went to work on the throttle return spring and bracket. I got all that installed this morning and have aluminum oil breathers/ caps for the rocker covers coming in the mail. For the time being here we are with the coolant hoses and throttle return spring installed.

Man.....you could almost stop right there and it would still look great Francis. This is going to be one build for the books right here.

Thanks all you guys for taggin' along on this build and for all the encouragement along the way. I simply cannot believe it's been a friggin' YEAR since I started this thing. WOW!!!

This one's coming along still. I managed to get the wheel/ tire assys mounted up and the chassis installed finally. I've been all over the engine like a rat on a cheeto!! Just a little closer today but has taken alot of work to get this far. I had to redo the throttle linkage twice at the intake due to weird angles I had with the linkage set up. Got it all straightened out now. Also added a PE radiator cap for a little extra detail. I'm back to having to work with the hood just a tad to get it to close fully but it shouldn't be too big of a problem.

Are you freakin' kidding me??? You're building seat adjuster assys now?? OMG!! Pure awesomeness!!!!

This friggin' metal work that you and Francis do is just top notch Tim!! Are you guys related? lol

Damm.....IT man! Friggin' nailed it!!! MAN that looks good.

Not yet Dan. lol. Thanks for the good comments brother.

This is turning into one helluva build Dan!! WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Roger!

This has got some definite promise to it.

Un.....frickin' believable!!!! Man.....this just keeps getting better and better Francis.

WOW!!! Very good work so far on this truck. Really like what I'm seeing.

Thanks Tim. Really appreciate you droppin' in and your comments.

Thanks Marcos and it's great to see you here bro. You'll REALLY like this site alot man. LOTS to learn here and LOTS of talent.

Thanks for the comments Daniel. At this point anything that's easier is welcome. I've really enjoyed this build so far but man......just a ton of stuff to either fabricate, modify or to just plain work around.

LOL!!! Jut have to put the correct tranny back there is all.

LOL!! No.....that's me throwing in the towel.....I give up. lol

It's taken me a while to get my method down John. I used to used stretched sprue for the rod but I've found that a natural metal look not only looks better but I don't have to paint it. The rest......man the rest is pure patience bro.

LOL! Thanks Francis! Throttle linkage is around 90% complete. Still gotta put the lever from the firewall, throttle quadrant and the lever up to the carb linkage.

Will be watching this one Les. Good ideas in motion already.
