She's a highway cruiser, 5.3 vortec (flex-fuel)/4L60e tranny, TCI 4-link rear/ Currie Ford 9" w/3.25 rear end. Designer Dozen Nominee at '08 Syracuse Nationals. No trailer queen; she's built to drive; day after the show set out on a 4,000 mile roadtrip. Working on a book about hot rodding at the end of the fossil fuel era, she's my calling card to conversations/ interviews with car folk. See my website at www.drivewhatyoubuild.com . Next three summers on the road all over America. Images at: http://s111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/1958_chevy_apache/

With your completion and sucessful restoration or your truck I'm sure you have much you can contribute to the Bolt. Nice pictures and a honorable project to go cruising across America. Also nice topic to cover.
While on your road trip just put down Achipmunk at 111 Glyn Oaks Dr. Boiling Springs, S.C., as a stop on your tour and for some good hot dogs or BBQ.

I'll contact you; here in upstate NY fingerlakes region there are some nice whites, that's about it. This summer I am visiting with rodders and restorers in the mid-west. Should be interesting. You, of course, are welcome out here. She is a driver, right? She looks very good.
