Really had to do some searching to find the original post of when I started this truck build but I found it. Of course it's been a very long time as life tends to get in the way of our hobbies. Fast forward 14 years she still isn't finished but I still have her.
I wanted to being this thread back to the forefront and dive back in.
Too bad but two different photo hosting sites and a couple of computer that crashed I have lost most every picture of this build.
As she currently sits. The stroker 496 big block is in the frame rails with a 540 Alison automatic behind it, however final mounting has never been completed and the new engine has never been fired.
The front axle, brakes, springs with all hardware pins and shackles are new. The front hubs and spindles have been machined to except better bearings and modern lip seals all to convert to oil bath set up.
Steering systems is mostly complete withe the exception of column and shaft. Steering has gone through a complete modernization with a power box and conversion to a cross over drag link.
There will be a lot more to come and I will do what I can to find a hosting sites I like to bring now pictures to this thread, btw the only pictures to survive are the ones in the gallery on this site.
