Wow Great job. Hope mine turns out just close to that. You don't know were I can get a good hood do you ?

I have a few but I'm a good mile or two away from you! Let me know if I can help though.

Very nice!
I'd like to know the origin/ manufacturer of the seat; looks like a good fit, and the details really set it off!

It is out of a Toyota T100. The fit is a little narrow but it does work and is very comfortable. You probably have 5 inches between it and the door on each side. It also has an armrest which is nice. We shaved it on this seat though.

this is my first time logging in, and this is the first thread I looked at. I shouldn't have looked! Now I'm depressed. You are so far out of my league. What an amazing vehicle.

Anyone here can do a truck like this. Just takes what none of us ever have enough of, time and money. Welcome aboard! Lots of helpful and knowledgeable people here.

That truck is stunning! Would like to hear a little more about the truck as far as chassis, drive train, and etc? I'd also like to see photos of the fuel tank set up? You knocked on out of the park with this one.

This truck is like the rest of the ones we have done. It has a Heidt's front IFS (because it will not be a work truck anytime soon) a flipped and notched rear with a FAST fuel injected roller motor 302 and a AOD with a widened 9" rear.



Thanks for all the kind words and compliments guys! I'm sure everyone has pros and cons but I have gotten a lot of ideas and such here and figured maybe someone would find an idea worth using from this one. The gas tank is a universal piece that we us all the the time. We make the brackets and use different gas fillers to fit each truck style. It could easily be a cookie cutter type system for mechanical pump or electric. He ran a roll pan on this one so I tucked the tank as high as possible so I can't really get a good install picture. I may have one somewhere before the bed went on. I will take a look.

Great job on the truck. You do some fine work sir. I just switched to that same booster/master cyl setup and love it.

Only downside I see to the build but understand it's an owners preference, it's too nice to drive.

[greenindian]

Very, very nice.

[unibody madness]

Whats the big deal?
I have four that look just as good if not better.......
Problem is I keep waking up!
Awesome job, thanks for the pics I also love the seat idea.

Yes, all PPG products. The color is a Harley Davidson by the name of Aztec Orange.

If I remember correctly they are 225/50/17 front and 275/50/17 rear. Need to check if you plan to use though.

It is a 302 roller with Edelbrock aluminum heads, E303 cam, and FAST fuel injection.
