Chuck, your wife is going to kick your A$$ if you dont get those parts of her hardwoods! Glad your parts showed up man. It better be on the ground when I show up Saturday!

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

lol...that's the hardwood in the foyer, it's the only hardwood in the house...she doesn't like it and it makes an ok backdrop because of the color...and if I had the time to drop it before you got here, it would be done...probably get done next weekend...

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

No excuses Chuck, Git 'er done man.

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

lol...I have more than enough excuses...what I don't have is enough time...make the day 34 hours and then I'm good...:D

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

Its a gm3. Get a Pyro and gauge and don't turn the fuel up alot with that Turbo. The exhuast housing is restrictive and your egt's will sky rocket.

I like the hood. It will give it the old skool rat rod effect. Can't wait to see it dropped and on the coys.

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

actually the damn turbo is a GM-1...I really need to get a new turbo lol...before I put it on...maybe...:D

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

looking good i'll be watching out for da the coys and drop

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

I do want a new turbo preferably, but probably going to have to buy a used one...really depends on what kind of money I can come up with at the time...right now, the money tree is losing leaves left and right and almost bare...almost...lol

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

Well Josh has come and gone. Was good meeting him today. I don't think he liked my pet ants and crickets though lol. Here's a pic of the coys on the truck. I gotta get some locking lugs and do something about the front center caps. Don't mind the high grass, ants, and crickets lmao. I can't wait til next weekend when I can get a chance to drop this thing on it's ass.

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

Thanks fellas. I'm gonna clr the hood again and clean the truck up real good and head out to the cruise-in this evening I think :D

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

Nice meeting you today Chuck. Take care of my wheels man! :lol:

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

looking sweet Chuck!! now get that baby lower!!

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

Next weekend Dennis next weekend. I cannot wait lol. I may slip it in tomorrow but probably gonna have to wait.

Also I went to the cruise-in tonight and everyone liked it and my plans for it.

I've been thinking about the interior and I think I'm gonna do the interior in a brownish orangish leather. Sorta like a rust color. Lol I'm trying to get rid of the rust on the outside and putting it back inside.

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

What size are your tires?

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

Lol dunno actually. Let me go check. Be right back.

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

225/40/20 on the fronts
295/40/20 on the rears

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

Cool!
You ought to get so pretty decent mileage with that size rear tire. Can you tell any difference in acceleration or stopping with the new shoes?

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

Lookin good!

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"
 

Joe, not really much of a difference. It definitely has tightened up my steering some though. Also, I thought the ride would get harsher and it hasn't at all actually. That's nice. They defintely get some looks. Noone has rims like these around here. There's only one other square that has anything done to it and it's a donk with 24s on it. Most everyone around here has classics and streetrods.

And thanks Bradley. It'll look lots better once it's got an altitude adjustment
