Cool..

I like the height it's sitting at right now.. I'm just not a fan of lowering.. Maybe the front just a tad..

Ya I know...hear you on the Prop Taxes.

Well I pretty much did what I wanted to do to it for now. I just wanted to make it look decent (from a distance ) for now.

It runs good....One of these weekends I'm going to pull the engine out, just to clean up the engine compartment and paint it.

The engine itself will also receive a "KRYLON" rebuild too !! (as Rich would say)

While the engine is out, I will reseal it as well...change out the intake for a 4-brl an the dist for an HEI. Thats about it.

For now I'm running it....I have other customers waiting for my skills

Your truck looks good.

Keep the pics coming.

John
