Re: My first project truck - 84 Chevy swb

Yes very. After i put my headers on and drove the truck a while then turned it off, it wouldnt start back up until the starter cooled down.. Starts right up everytime now and I've had it almost 2 months.

Re: My first project truck - 84 Chevy swb

Thanks for the complements guys. Not sure when or if it will be bagged.
But I would love to bag it, just don't have the time or money for that yet.

Re: My first project truck - 84 Chevy swb

Got a small update finally. Just now got around to putting in a 600 watt 4ch amp under the seat and out of the way, and some kicker 6 inch speakers in the kick panels. Thanks to Captkaos for the kick panel pods!
