A little slow but it should be together enough to have a barney visit soon!

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

[HILROD]

Just added a new pic. more in the AM when my camera is charged.

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

the way the steering shaft goes through the header is pretty wicked.

 

[HILROD]

Yeah, it's different. A couple more pics added.

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

pink for the TC ?

 

[HILROD]

pink for the TC ?

Yeah it's an inside joke. Also I can call it a Vigalante as they are pink. It was purple along with the trans earlier today.

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

very well then !
trans looks good

 

[HILROD]

A few more pics. Way more has been done than shows up in the pics but, I have been busy.

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

front end of the truck looks great... really taking shape !
that pink trans pan actually looks good !

 

[HILROD]

The rear is in and finalized.

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

white d/s eh ? thats pretty neat. i noticed a horizontal type shock absorber on the left side.... is that "custom" or strategically planned ?

speaking of rear ends.............................................

 

[HILROD]

If you look close there are 2 "hop shocks", maybe they'll work. I know, my new job is keeping me busy. Soon!

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

fingers crossed

 

[HILROD]

A few more pics added. A lot more work done that you can't see. The shifter works!

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

Can you tell me a bit more about what you did with the rear end? I'm trying to figure out what I am going to do with my truck. I really don't want to run slapper bars and slide-a-links are stupid expensive.

 

[HILROD]

I did a kinda cross between Ford Quad Shocks and the stock V6 5speed hop shock. I'm not sure how well it'll word tho. If I need to I'll run solid bars where the shocks are at the track.
