Nice to see you working on another project. The bar under the crank pulley looks like it supports the engine, but I'm not sure? Trying to figure it out in the picture. Also, I didn't know you could mount a radiator in the back? How does that work, with an electric fan? This will be a real education thread for me. Great ideas, and beautifull truck. Nice to have the hard top, convertable choices in life. Like Ken's grandson said, let's take the truck instead!
I also really like the flat black paint idea. I've been farting around with the idea of painting my own truck a flat color to hide my lack of perfection on the truck, plus I really like the look. I was thinking of either primer gray or olive.
Is this the big block 460 in the truck?
