I just bought a TP Tools Showtime 90 Sprayer the other day. I'm going to mix up some paint and shoot my door panels this week for it's first test...
oh, here's a shot of it with the right size of tires on it. now it sits just right
I'm using black oak hardwood for the bed wood. It has a satin finish but I'm going to sand it and apply 3 good coats of lacquer over top. The...
I keep track of this build, along with Taylor Crawfords and Buzznut all at the same time. It's interesting to see how many similarities and...
I go the tubs welded in last night. Tonight I'll be installing some tail lights, running the fuel line, and possibly helping the wife install the...
Edelbrocks always. Bolt it on, set it up and enjoy
here's a shot of how the truck sits now that the right tires are mounted. You can get a sneak peak at the headliner the wife stitched up for it as...
I haven't updated this in a couple months so I figured I'd get everyone caught up. The progress slowed as the snow melted and we could get to our...
Thanks again for the diagram. I'm going to double check it against mine and see how close they are. I stopped updating my build thread because I...
Oh damn that sounds nice. What size cam did you put in it? You can hear the lump. It sounds like a 268 Comp cam to me
Thanks for taking the time to do that for me bud. You're right, your truck is going to be badass when it starts rolling again. Here's a quick shot...
damn that's a lot of stripping. I sanded my old paint with 400 grit and feathered out any edges of crusty paint then used a 2 in 1 primer and...
did you replace your shocks to absorb some of the load when you lowered it?
this was definitely one of my favorite builds to follow. Thanks for keeping us up to date on everything guys. You did a pretty sweet job on this...
Where was the picture taken with the rest of those task force trucks? Looks like a show I'd love to attend.
thanks man. You're making a ton of progress on this thing. It'll sure be rewarding when you can drive it all week long and tinker with it on...
thanks for the pictures bud. If you don't mind drawing up a quick little diagram of what goes where on the light switch, that would help me out...
I just finished building a house and believe me, it takes A LOT out of you physically, financially and mentally. But it's all worth it in the end.
I really hate to bother you again but is there a possibility that you couple take a pic of the light switch so I can double check my connections?
Can you take a picture of your proportioning valve for us? I'd like to see how you have your lines running in and out. It sounds like its...
are you running each of the front brakes off the same location on the proportioning valve? I know some of them split off of 1 and others will run...
damn fine progress you're making on this one bud. I love that red oxide and cream. I think some cream pinstriping would really set the body off I...
did you bench bleed the MC before installing it? That could be the issue with to much air in the lines
i hear ya on that one brother. I have the day off and was all set up to work on my truck but my daily driver is in need of some TLC so the day...
do you have any pictures of this Hudson you could share with us?
I was in the same boat as you bud. When I started I was going to put the truck at stock ride height and get it driving. Once I got it on the road,...
this 50 Olds that the Gas Monkey Garage did looked so damn cool when it was done. It was scuffed and cleared with satin clear [img]
a set of spider caps would look SICK on these wheels
and what size tires are you running? ANy issues with them hitting the edge of the front fender when turning? This truck came together nicely man!!
I must have been mistaken, I thought I read back in your thread that you were wiring up a signal stat 900 turn signal unit.
