Looks great Kevin! If I planned on keeping mine much longer it'd be real similar... just 370ci. Really well thought out and set-up nicely sir!

I have a few hundred miles on it. The roads are total crap here in PA. They throw down enough salt and grit on the back roads for the entire Northeastern seaboard it seams. I am waiting for a good heavy rain to wash all the crap off the roads then I will be commuting to work in it to get some miles on it. I miss driving it terribly.

Your killing me! My local dragway opens this weekend...a group is going on the 8th as well. More than likely, I will not hit the strip hard core (nitrous and DRs) till the fall. I want to enjoy the truck for the cruise night season before I break parts I will do some shake down passes in street trim before then though for sure.

Now that I look at it, next Friday is their first street legal. Hmm, usually there is only a few cars this early in the season and they have very loose tech as well. Now ya got me thinking
