Well guys, Im sick :rolleyes:
Im starting ANOTHER ONE !!! :uhmk:

I'm combining a few of my projects into one :D
Taking my old trucks Kilroy & Sinister, the engine out of Slick 77, and the frame from Sano

I picked up a NV-3500 & Caddi rear disc brakes for it also :metal:

My dad & I started by swapping the front suspension from Sinister into the frame (already bagged & rebuilt)
Then today we swapped in the rear axle in :cool:

Sanos frame when I got it

Re: Killer

Re: Killer
 

Maybe you should call it "Cannibal". It seems to be eating up several of it's family members.

Re: Killer

Re: Killer
 

Well for just a few days home, I think we made pretty good progress.

Now comes the time consuming part. The ever menacing decision times.
What to fix, what to replace, what to modify and what to let go and get on to driving.

Hope you keep on going. Try to get it right, but keep motivated.
Dad

67 c-30, He's hard to keep motivated and pointed in one direction. I need all of ya'lls help on getting him to finish it before he starts another one.

Re: Killer
 

We'll try! The truck ya'll are building now looks to have the most potential of any of the 1263 prior builds;). Being able to handpick good sheet metal and putting on a nice reconditioned shorty frame will actually give that truck really decent value if its put all together.

Here's some inspiration!
