Plenty of power (Philip has done a few burnouts in the driveway), no negative vibrations, brakes work as expected but did not get too much of a feel for the general handling just going up and back. Did run over a few potholes to test the suspension and I can definately say it rides like a truck. Once I get the alignment done and wider rubber on it I will be ready to put it through some further testing.

Lookin' Good, Houston!!

Drove BillyBob without a windshield a couple of years ago to get him undercover when a hurricane was coming.

Only trouble with that is that you're grinning so much when driving an old truck, you have to pick the bugs out of your teeth when you're done.

Houston,
Your project is great, thanks for sharing it with us in such a fine album; speaking of which... how do you like Picturetrail? It sure has a nice presentation. Most of the Bolters are using WebShots and I am now at the point of deciding which image hosting site to use. Any comments, suggestions?

I know this topic has been discussed before but your pictures are the first that I've seen on Picturetrail. Do you have the premimum account or the "free" account?

I started with the free account at PT but upgraded to the premium service a couple of years ago. I found it easy to use and the response time for pictures to come up seems to be much better than webshots or the yahoo option. I am considering changing to the Google viewer Picasa which I hear is pretty good and a better value.

Glad y'all like the pics. I hope to keep the project moving forward and have more pics to share soon.

Larry - you are too late with the bug warning but since I am an old motorscooter rider I tried not to smile too wide.

JED - I will try to view your album and send you a PM.

If you would like to see another fine truck go to picture trail and enter "pu-man". This is a project a friend of mine in German recently completed. It has a camaro subframe and lots of great detail. Be sure to sign his guest book when you visit.

Joejan72,

Here is a link to your album. Looks good to me. There are many options for how your page looks and I think I just used the standard version. Not too interested in fluff. Just wanted to share the experience.

http://www.picturetrail.com/gallery...mp;gid=14600923&&imgid=219367880

The only real problem I see is there are no descriptions which you can add by using the edit feature and that there are pics of a furd on there. The furd looks like a 63? I like the engine.

Houston,

I'm trying Picasa and this is my first attempt at posting it. Although I'm sure I've just touched the surface of it, I'll get some more experience when I locate and scan the photos from 11 years ago when I parked the '41.
