Very nice start, looking forward to watching you Grizzify it!
Gotta love a 327 with camel hump heads... Until it is time to pay for more petrol that is
Have fun!

Thanks Don, camel hump heads are worth the smiles per mile.

I could go to a casino and come back with nothing, or buy a bottle of brandy a day and have just a headache. At least we get memories along with a light wallet.

Hi Mark, thanks.

Nicola loves the truck. She is always at least 50% of the decission making power in my mad escapades. Often encouraging me more when I am still cautious.

Power steering will have to wait till I have money to throw about.

A lazy final drive is more important to me, so that I can drop the revs and up the cruizing speed to 70mph.
Most importantly, I would love to evolve our truck like you have done yours over time.
