As a reminder to the lurkers. I am here to interact with the members. My build thread isn’t sacred. Please post, share, ask questions etc., that’s literally why I am on here.
very cool. those seat covers suit you. Which end of town did you find that. Are you gonna be at the run to the sun this weekend I be there at least one or days
I hope so, I have to work but I’m off at 11 am on Saturday so I’ll try to make it then. My dad has a couple of the cars he’s built for people in the show so I know he will be there. I’ll meet you by the 32 fords lol
those seat covers are already in the trash
Sure thing, maybe next year I'll get one mine in.
Oh not digging the step running/nerf bars those going ???

Been spending the 1 hour of sunlight I get cleaning it up so far. Took out a bunch of trash and leftovers from the PO.
I got it from the north side of town off Chenoweth. The crazy pirate guy? You seen him? This was his. He drove it 7 miles to the boat ramp pretty much it’s entire life hHa
nope, they are coming off next and I’ll fabricate my own. Those things are held on by plumbers tape I sh** you not

yeah I have seen the boat on the lake/channel. Chenoweth the dump road. name wasn't Wisse was it ?
Chenoweth on the lake side. Yeah the “Booty Patrol” Tri-tune boat
His names Ben Lim. Really cool Hawaiian dude.
Cool hopefully that will stick in the gray matter, I'm sure I see him on the lake
Pretty cool score. Although he told me it was a 350/700R4 but after closer inspection it’s a 350/350 (which I like way better) the only issue is the column is for a 700r4
Plan is to make it duneable and get the wife to the grocery store lol
I have a 14 bolt coming out of my sons 84 K20 and I have a windshield, I’m headed your way mid January…
Following.
Following.
What gear ratio?
I’ll be getting the windshield done before that.
Got parts coming in to clean up the interior. New windshield will be here next week. Decided to install myself.
finally got a look at the casting number on the block and I’m in a bit of a conundrum.
7 number casting?
crate 350? Corvette?
