Progress on my '54 Chevy Pickup

My desire to build an A.D truck with a inline 6 is almost a reality. I have put about 75 miles on it and this past Monday took it to Will Hudson ay Hudsons Rod Shop in Knoxville for the upholestry.

I have several bugs to work out but I think the major hurdles are over now.

It is a '54 Chevy with a 250 inline. The head was completly reworked, mild cam, Langdon Cast Headers, Holley 390, Offy intake, 200r, bags all around, Mustang II, 4-Link.

Hopefully I will make my first trip to Columbus in July at the GG's event.

Thanks to all that has helped me get through the issues with the inline situation.

 

lookin good dude. keep up the good work.

 

That is one sweet lookin truck man!

 

I love these old trucks slammed to the ground. Looks great man.

 

looking great man

 

sweet ride...... post a shot when you get the upholstery done.

 

great truck. hows the gas millage on that 6er?

 

Just put 50-60 miles on it so far. Still have to do some tinkering with the carb. Jets and power valve changes.

Also gonna have to pull the intake. Brand new Offy and both freeze plugs in the water runner are leaking. Bleep da bleep da bleep me off. Leaks dripped down on the cast headers and ****ped them up. Thanks Offey for your great workmanship.

 

Awesome truck!

 

Truck looks awesome man.

 

I'm lovin it! Nice work.

 

Sick!!!!!!!!

 

Nice ride! Question, I see you have bags all around... what ch***is mods did you make? That is a sweet truck!!!

 

Great looking truck, awesome stance, diggin the straight six too!

 

Sweet as hell! Surprised nobody is hating on you for doing a mustang II on here.
Outa curiosity what size wheels and tires are you running?

 

Come on Bud, You brag about the 250 and no pics of it.

 

Yeah, at least a crayon drawing of it!! Or you afraid to show the leaky mess from the Offy? That ****s. At least your starter didn't take **** on you...

 

that is so killer!

 

Dan thanks, I guess. Wouldn't expect anything less from you my friend.........

I'm still making some changes to the engine and wanted to save those pics for last. As soon as I get to my home computer where the engine pics are at I will post a few.

To all the others that gave me sincere compliments I say thank you so much.

Dan, umm ahh never mind....

 

Still changes to be made. But here is something to get started with.

 

TRUCKED...I love any low rider, and you did good in posting a pic. of that bad*** mill. that should slow down the guessers! HA! but i'am more interested in your paint or primer, please don't say no paint today. because i can't handle any rod without paint or primer. we call those things R.R. you falla?...POP.

 

Lets just say that I am pondering on a color.

Now I will admitt that I am sloooooow on making my mind up, so it may stay this way for a while.......

 

Fronts are 245/60/15 and rears are 275/60/15.

 

Nice work. I put a 292 in my '37 Chevy pu and it's as tight as yours. The new gen 6's were quite a bit longer than the old.

Love the motor, thanks for the pics.
