    We did my chassis at Kennedy's Hot Rod Shop back in March but getting to west TN to work on it has been next to impossible. Not being able to work on it was killing me though so I've decided to sell my Nova wagon & get serious about the RPU.

    The RPU is in a friend's basement until the wagon sells. I hope to have it home really soon though. Once it gets here it should come together quickly.

    I may ride next year....

    4.50/4.75 x 16" in front.
    7.00 x 18" in back.

    Power comes from a .030 over 283 with Power Pack heads, 600cfm Edelbrock carb, C4B Edelbrock intake, & a Thumpr cam.

    I think the whole truck needs to be the color of the bed.

    Pics don't do that color justice. It looks like an Easter egg threw up all over it. :eek:

    Won't be any sanding through for fake patina here!
