| Well, newest project is in the garage. 63 chevy shortbed. It has been in storage since 1975 and is in amazing shape. No rust anywhere except front fenders. Wooden bed floor still in good shape. I'm getting a 400 small block being machined right now that will be a 406. Turbo 400 with blue plates and a wedge sprag. Ford 9 inch with a 4link. I'll post pics tomorrow. Heres a bad one.  | |

| Pro street.....it will have the nostalgic gasser look. low in the back with a mini tub, fat tires on back. Weld pro star wheels. "down to your last penny" orange (house of colors).Rear roll pan. 70-72 front spindles with disc brakes. Ford 9-inch rear with disc. 400(406) with scat balanced rotating assembly. Pete Jackson noisy gear drive. I found a 6-71 blower with carbs and hilborn scoop for 1500 bucks so it might make it's way on it too. MSD ignition. Just the weekend toy. | |

| Nice. We had a 1963 Chevrolet C60 (IIRC) grain truck, and I always liked driving it around.  | |
