Does anyone have a wiper switch? The actual knob with switch that mounts into the dash? Mine was missing when I got the truck. I've looked and they don't seem to replicate that part from what i can find. I need the bezel too. Any advice or direction would be great. Thanks. Here are some updated phot...

Its called performance red. Its a GM color. The pic shows it a little oranger than it is but yes, very intense red.

Some progress pics. http://speednchrome.com/public_html/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/13256193_581884265311342_7294386515114707046_n-900x900.jpg http://speednchrome.com/public_html/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/13256457_581884275311341_8001767724787947215_n-900x900.jpg http://speednchrome.com/public_html/...

paint on the doors is all done finally. Now I can get them put back together. Feels good to have at least one thing done. Paint came out nice and I love the color combo.

Some progress on the drivers door.

Well, due to having four project cars and running two side business its been a little while since I posted any updates. Let me get some updates going. Here is a quick vid of the engine running. Choke is not hooked up so you'll see that flapping about but you'll get the idea. https://www.youtube.com/...

Update on the Monster Hauler. I finally got to hear the motor through the new exhaust. It was short lived, seems my Craigslist carb is having some issues. This is after I replaced the points by the way which were toast. Fix one issue, find another. Not sure whats up with the carb. Swapping it out on...

@624WD I took it to a local shop where they moved over the lower hose connection. I didin't want to hassle with sending it out etc. so I just had it fixed. I just had to order another for our drag car, I made sure it had the port on the correct side for the Y-Block this time. So the Monster Hauler i...

Radiator is back in. Fixed the couple of minor leaks from when I broke it in a few months back. Fuel lines hooked up. Just need to add some water and do a final leak check. Fuel tank is just about ready to go back in place with new sending unit installed. Hope to get that done tomorrow. Then I can f...

Floor pans cleaned and POR15 applied. Also did more cleaning on the gas tank, its almost ready to reinstall. I finally got the pick up tube open which was my biggest concern. Now to prep and paint the jams and then I can get the doors back on. https://scontent.cdninstagram.com/hphotos-xfa1/t51.2885-...

I've ran a few cleaners through it now, the pick up tube is still clogged. I think whats on the bottom is a fine layer of rust so I have some rust dissolver I'm going to try next. Still working on that darn tube though. Hope I can get that opened up. The rest of the tank looks really good though. Ge...

Exhaust is finally fully welded and installed tonight. https://scontent.cdninstagram.com/hphotos-xaf1/t51.2885-15/sh0.08/e35/12142272_157909897890432_1684546695_n.jpg Here is an inside the tank view. Pretty clean considering its sat for 12 plus years. My only issue is the pick up tube is clogged. Wo...

Tonight I pulled the tank out of the monster hauler. I’ve been dreading it since the day I got the truck. There was about a cup of old gas in it which I was happy about. Too much fuel means I would have to take it to the hazard waste facility. No gas could mean more rust. It was dark when I took the...

It looks like I forgot to post up a pic of the finished wheels.

Its been a while since I posted an update. Its been a very busy summer. I started a business and its taking all my energy. I was able to start on the exhaust last night. Pipes are welded and I was able to get one muffler welded on as well, no pics of that yet. Trying to finish it tonight then I need...

Been a while since I posted. i did fire the engine and broke it in. Ran very well, only a couple of minor leaks where my radiator hose connected, easily fixed. Cam sounds ridicules, Tim really did a great job on this little budget build. Big parts order came in yesterday. Driveline is all rebuilt an...

Closer, should fire it this weekend.

Fan is painted. Getting closer to final assembly.

Sorted out the brackets for the alternator upgrade.

Ya, thats what I'm finding. Half tons are all the rage ha ha. Nobody wants to build a work truck.
