This is something my stepdad has been working on for sometime. I've tried to help as much as I can, but with my crazy work schedules, I haven't been able to do as much as I would have liked. I did help him install all of the suspension, mount the motor, and mount the tranny, but that is about it. It has been an ongoing, and slow project, but it is getting close to being done finally. Right now, the cab is being done by a friend, and it's coming along. Everything is painted, we just need to get the front engine assembly, rest of the exhaust, the seats, and the wheels/tires. But anyway, I will periodically update this thread, as things are getting done, but for now, here is what I have...

Pretty much everything but the frame, and body is completely custom. The interior is being completely custom made, the headers were a 3-month custom project by Hooker, the engine was built from the ground up, the suspension is custom, etc, etc. The rest of the exhaust will be completely custom made as well.

It's wood right now, but yes, will be fiberglassed. It's a late 80s model actually, 88 or 89, I can't remember.

Lol, iPhone, and I took them in the dark.

Something else I forgot to mention, the motor was put on a crank dyno when it was finished. Put out 601 HP and 631 ft-lbs.

Wow! That stroker barely fit! Hooker did a great job getting the headers all in there!
Can't wait to see it completed! :top:
