I will. Already told his family and all of our close friends its happening, so there's no going back on it now.

wow man. sorry for your lose

Thank you man. It's been tough. I think it finally hit me yesterday when I went and texted him "what's up" and he never replied. My brain completely blocked the fact that he was dead because all day I wondered why he hasn't texted me back.

Sorry for your loss man, i know exactly what you mean.... when my gf passed away back in february it was like i got hit in the chest with a sledge hammer.... i couldnt accept it, i didnt know what to do, i just felt lost. Cant wait to see your truck finished with the tribute paint

Sorry for your loss man. I lost my best friend about 6 months ago to suicide. Really sucks but that's awesome what y'all are doing with the truck

 

[J_Corr]

Sorry for your loss. Truck will look awesome with that 2 tone tho.

$120 per. $1200 shipped. We buy 10 so we have spares. So they aren't too bad.

Remember this truck from GMFS. Sorry for you lose man.its cool what you're doing with the paint though. And that engine is fuckin sweet!!

 

[TechieTruckGuy]

Would be cool to have a memorial deal pinstriped on the tailgate. Food for thought

 

[welsh907]

Doing some work on both pigs today.

 

[GingerCrew]

All that stuff makes the block look like a 1.6 d16 lol

lol.
It does look a little skimpy throughout the center without the distributor, idler bracket and fuel pump.

 

[welsh907]

Looks a little more proportional with the valve covers on.

Bracket I made out of half in aluminum to hold the crank support.

Crank support before the bracket

strictly drag i assume since theres no room for a water pump.

Yeah. Nothing about the truck is DOT legal. No lights, wipers, DOT tires, exhaust, wing. Lol
