[rusty76]

Man been over two years since I posted on this thread. So let’s start catching up. First I hope all is well in truck land. Things are starting to happen with my crusty 76. My buddy called one day and said what are we going to do with this 400? At first we thought about another engine for it. Truck hasn’t moved in over ten years what’s a few more days months right? Two months after speaking with my buddy he said I hauled the engine to the machine shop. Sweet. He said they were busy but eventually they’ll get to it. All good. Two weeks ago they started machining it. Now I’ve got to get cranking on this thing. Honestly I’ll have to make time in between everything else. I’m in no real hurry but I do want to be driving this thing before this time next year.

This isn’t going to be a restoration or big money build. Just a solid driver and fun weekend warrior, more on that later. I plan to lower it. That’s been the plan since 1997 when I got my square. It’ll be somewhat fast and tons of fun. The focus will be on attitude, safety and drivability. I need to be able to drive it to work or to the grocery store without care. I’m keeping things pretty basic. Keeping the toolbox, CB radio and my highliner. I’ll post up pics and report progress. So stayed tuned. C ya.
