I have the same problem bobbo, never win, but I never purchase the ticket. Oh well.... one more $1 for the truck!

Sorry to hear that you won't be able to make it to Blue Springs, but the board meet is definitely worth saving a little more $$$. I only wish we could have rescheduled our trip, maybe next year!

bobbo · 06-22-2008, 07:23 PM

Made some real progress this weekend!

We put the engine in last night and Kyle painted it today. Here's lots of pics. Sorry Kyle, couldn't wait to post these.

bobbo · 06-22-2008, 07:26 PM

Make sure to ask Kyle why he is under the dash in the previous pics. Funny story there that I will let ya ask.

72BlckButy · 06-22-2008, 07:27 PM

Man... this thing is going to be awesome!!! I love the inline 6!

Nice work guys!

bobbo · 06-22-2008, 07:28 PM

And now for the exterior paint!

72BlckButy · 06-22-2008, 07:28 PM

Okay Kyle.... what did you hide under the dash? More flowers for Andy?

bobbo · 06-22-2008, 07:29 PM

Couple more...Think the last one says it all!

72BlckButy · 06-22-2008, 07:31 PM

Hey bobbo... is he getting these kind of paint results while painting in his garage???? That paint looks flawless!

bobbo · 06-22-2008, 07:33 PM

Yes, it is in his garage, and it looks perfect in the pics, but there are a few flaws and a couple things he is going to repair...But it does look sweet all the same. Thinking he is going to paint my truck....

I forgot to hook up the oil pressure line to the gauge, had a little spill. Who's Andy?

Thanks for posting RobertoBobbo. Made me realize that I want to have the pinstripe done in Black.

It's a long story that can be found in the following post.... LINK

The truck looks great Kyle!

49m · 06-22-2008, 10:10 PM

We painted both the camaros in the garage and they look great and better than some paint shop jobs you see

BACKYARD88 · 06-22-2008, 10:30 PM

Looking good! I'm really digging the 6. It looks especially good with that color

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 06-22-2008, 11:00 PM

Nice work .....

19723DR · 06-23-2008, 01:10 AM

That paint looks really good. It'll be no time before you are hittin' the street!

kyull67 · 06-23-2008, 01:25 AM

Thanks everyone. Those pictures were taken when the clear was still wet. I just went out and looked at it again and the paint looks alot better! We should have it running tomorrow night.

semperfidoordie · 06-23-2008, 01:48 AM

man that's a good looking truck. Congrats...how long you been building her?

samwise68 · 06-23-2008, 09:49 AM

Excellent!!

Man, that is one slick look rig, no doubt about it. The paint turned out great, and the scheme is really growing on me, lol.

Can't wait to see/hear that 6 spring to life. What do you plan on running for exhaust?

Thanks. I have no idea. Any suggestions as to what will make it sound good?

samwise68 · 06-23-2008, 01:07 PM

I've always been a sucker for glasspacks, especially since I'm a big fan of the rap off.

Otherwise, I'm sure any sort off muffler would due; it's all about preference. Flowmaster, Thursh, etc etc. Everyone will have a different opinion.

So, with that being said - 26 inch glasspacks (Thursh steelpacks for classic sound, CherryBombs for price, whatever) as close to the headers as possible. then just 2 or 2.25 inch pipe to the destination of your choice. It'll have that classic six babble, and be pretty mellow with the longer 'packs.

But, thats just me.

whichever you choose, I'm sure it's going to compliment the truck nicely.

-Sam.

68chevy68 · 06-23-2008, 01:10 PM

Man I am loving this truck!! Nice job. Love the colors too.

bobbo · 06-24-2008, 08:04 AM

More progress!

Almost had it running last night, but it's a bit loud at 2:00 a.m. for open headers.

bobbo · 06-24-2008, 08:06 AM

More...

toomanytoyz · 06-24-2008, 08:16 AM

Your Truck is Looking Great, Really Like that you were able to Match up the Paint that was on the Bed. I Bet you are one Happy Man to be at this Stage...................

Great Work, Really Looking forward to the Completion..............
