Re: Hi
got the truck back, wiring is back together, ignition works now, hoping to get a start on bodywork tomorrow, starting with back fenders and roll pan. Another problem i can blame the last owner for is that the pulleys on the engine are all 5 rib serpentine from a late 80's or early 90's chevy, except for the alternator pulley is 4 rib, so the belt has a rib ripped off it. some peoples kids.

Re: Hi
the last 4 pictures are of a 63 chev that a road construction guy owns. he has a brake line lock with the actuator button for the solenoid on his shifter. easier to do burnouts without putting too much stress on the entire driveline. decent smokeshow with the 454, 400 horse with a roller cam and lifters
