It kinda reminds me of an old steam locomotive, maybe you should change the name to LOCO-motive. I kinda like it though

Legend 1981:  I never even thought of that....B.A.'s Truck

ChopTop : I have heard that on another board before....But I still like to hear it, Thanks. If I changed the name it wouldn't fit my personality then. (Thanks for the input though)

Loud-n-low87: I have heard the Mad Max thing before too. Even got acused of watching 1 too many of those movies....LOL..LOL..(Still love hearing that too) It is about a 5/7 or 6/8 static drop.
                    Could be more though.

Jonk: Only reason I flipped the front bumper was because it was free for one and I had never seen it done before.

HogWild: Thanks for the feedback and for the "Redneck" compliment.....


It is nothing fancy at all, but the truck has belonged to my brother for about 10 years. Did it all myself. Still have a long way to go to get it where I want it but the outward apperenceWill stay pretty much the same.

A few of the mods.
350/350combo.....runnin a pegleg 12 bolt
Cut springs up front
flipped rearend w/homebuilt C-notch and axel relocation kit out back.
Bucket seats from a 2003 Eclipse
Side mirrors from my step dads old harley
6x9 grills for headlight bezels

In the works is sound deadening the cab.
Already filled the cab corners with spray foam insulation to get it started.


Thanks for all the feedback guys.

I decided to go ahead and put in some herculiner as mentioned above.
I will probably wait 2 or 3 days and put on another coat. All I did was the back wall and the floor pan, Maybe I will notice a difference in a few hours.

very cool. I'm kinda going the same "rat rod" or old school "hot rod" look on my truck, execpt I'm gonna lift mine about 10" total. I'm not sure I like the front bumper but it is very kick butt in my book simply becase it's original and that's kinda what I'm trying to go for on my truck. But anyway, all in all I like it.

Thanks Mud Monster,
I have had a lot of mixed feedback on the front bumper.
Sombody told me it looked like it had a "Fat Lip", Somebody else asked me where I got the spoiler the the old truck....I'm cool with it though. Not every body is going to like everything I do.

This IS just a playtoy........Isn't it.......

Until someone else starts funding your project, you are the only one who's opinion matters.

did it come with the 350/350 combo in it? or was that what you put in it? What's been done to the engine performance wise?
