Just Plain Stupied

I like the Harley pipe idea. How do they sound??

 

[doorgunner]

If you've ever hear an oldV-8 289 cu.in. mustang engine with dual exhausts....that's what it sounds like....it has a nice deep sound at idle & a small-block V-8 sound on the road. (or just imagine a Harley V-8)


Edit: I checked on the cab/chassis at the paint shop....maybe this week it'll get the epoxy base-coat

very interesting build. i cant wait to see it done

 

[doorgunner]

Thanks PB90......it's been slow waiting for the Louisiana weather to co-operate so my truck could get bumped up to the paint booth....maybe the interior will get some red paint tomorrow...a

Blackwidow....i'm finally getting to the piont point where i can start bolting stuff together

whoo hooo

 

[doorgunner]

Body shop had to make a mod to the dash
....passenger door hidden hinge was binding on right corner of dash in previous picture
....gonna see how weather is Monday for possible interior (dash, door jambs) Red paint!
I caused the hinge problem when I installed the dash slightly off-center to the right side.
Slow but sure!

Man thats gonna be sweet did you keep the stock rear end I didn't see anthing on it.

 

[doorgunner]

yep, OEM.....I'll just have to go easy on it....and re-set the pinion angle after lowering the suspension

Edit: however, I does have a chrome cover to replace the OEM cover....bling-bling
