Update on my junk!! (Truggy it)

Pushed it out of the garage today and spent about 5 hours cleaning each joint and all the tubing. I then primed it and started the paint. Stopped at the dash area since i still need to do a little more fabbing there.
I really like how its coming out though:D
I can almost see the light;)

You can buy a bolt on kit from propaneguy.com, buts about twice what I paid for my stuff from piecing it together.
As for tuning, it isnt real hard, from what I hear most of the tuning is just done by ear. So as long as your not def its pretty easy:D
 
I have to be the first to say that is the ugliest, most hideous POS I have ever seen. What a disgrace to the true beauty of the K5. I can't believe somebody would do that to such a nostalgic vehicle :dunno:

There stock length.
I am about to re-do my rear suspension since after taking off all the weight the rear is stiffer. I am going to run some 6" shackles and pull a leaf out of the pack.
When it was full bodied I could easy score 1000 on the ramp so the shackles didnt limit me to much.;)
