This truck would be BAD ASS with my front end and bed on it you should check it out. Great project!
There was a cool cab in Cali that was a extended cab chopped with a full rag once owned by Bill Stull.

...time to update this thread already.

So the overall design has changed.

That was a first draft, but this is a bit closer to the paint scheme. It'll be flat black...probably, with a ton of flames.

Interior is all recovered. It's going to be all navy blue and billet. My buddy Gary did a fantastic job on them.

It's in my new shop for awhile, I yanked the motor with the help of my buddy Chris, cause the Porterbuilt cross member has to go in.

thread post photo


The motor is getting freshened up by my friend Kenny and his dad. New gaskets and headers and bits and pieces. It was running fine but couldn't get dry started after sitting so long. Plus it was the perfect time to do maintenance.

Thanks brother, just had a lot going on. It's gotta go this year, I want to stomp on that go fast pedal soooooo bad.

I think I will put two remote exhaust dumps on it too. All new exhaust will be going in anyway. And I found a new bed for it too...lots to do lots to do.

The motor is pretty much done. Freshened up and repainted. I got the headers and carbs are being rebuilt. I'm trying to find a decent air filter for the double carb setup from edelbrock. Then I have to paint it to match.

It's painted House of Kolor Tru Blue, and got cleared up with UC35.

Everything else got the business and she's coming together again.

Polished the covers and the Accuair tanks.

But seeing as the black wasn't cutting it for me, I'm painting them blue as well.
