The two twin blown big blocks were pretty cool, they have two dominators on each motor and NOS for kicks. RPM Engine Design built those here in Tempe, a friend is a partner in the shop. RPM builds everything from IRL motors, pro stock, to winged outlaw stuff. They go side by side in an off shore boat......one of those famous chopper bike builder guys owns the boat.

That pickup dash is two 55 chevy dashes put together and in a 74 blazer, the ends are cut off and flipped to the oposite side, that truck is actually being painted now and is coming together nicely, it has all of the dakota digital dash stuff and the 55 chrome and bezels to go with it. The grill has custom filed and shaped brass spears which are going to the plater soon, kind of simliar to the stuff Foose is doing on his bodylines. I did the metal work including the quarter panels which are stretched like the 90-01 bodystyle, I cut an inch off the top of the doors and shaped the sheetmetal to match the bed, the window frame is cut off the door and the two pillars are welded as one. I built a motor for the truck too.

Those frames are done at the neighborhood "Clubhouse", A group of us that hang out and fab stuff for fun.
