Re: Project "Nether~Storm" 72 swb
Well I got Some AWESOME News!
My dad is giving me a new motor! I wasn't quite sold on the BBC for my truck, but still wanted the power and drive-ability. So I was talking to him yesterday and he had built a 1970 Corvette HO 350 for his 68 that he had and ended up selling the Truck before installing the motor. The Beauty has been setting on a stand in his Garage waiting for a home... He asked if I would be interested... (hummm, Motor Built by my Dad... Great HP, ... Drive-Ability,... How can I turn that down!?!?!?) Yall give me your Opinion,... ![]() ![]() More Pic to come. Along with full Specs.

Re: Project "Nether~Storm" 72 swb
Nothing major to report, ....
But I got Pictures! ![]() First I do need ya'llz opinion. Red Or White? ![]() Oh and the Glove box door, ashtry, and Gauge pod are all being shipped to Pinstripe Chris to be (Artisticly) Painted... Im letting him Draw / Paint whatever he wants on them. ![]() Next, I have been Stripping Paint off my cab... OMG!!! There are at least 7 layers! It has never been stripped before and it has been painted a number of times. UGH! I figured I had better strip it to find out exactly what is under the top coats.... Unfortunately I have already found rust and a few dents. But nothing that can't be fixed. The worst of the rust... ![]() ![]() and some clean metal... ![]() ![]() and some more cleaned metal... kinda hard to see, but you get the picture. ![]() ![]()

Re: Project "Nether~Storm" 72 swb
Red or white? For me, guess it'd depend on the color scheme overall. But if you're asking 'red or white' - which cluster to use, I'd keep it year specific.

Re: Project "Nether~Storm" 72 swb
Well both clusters are 72, so I can use either and it be correct. The Interior will be viper red metal w/ black leather seats and console. But my gauge pod, ashtray, and glove box door are all being detailed by pinstripe Chris. Mostly white art, with hints of red on a black background.
