Re: 1964 GMC 1500 "crustine" semi- build.

Well nothing amazing to update but I did score this air cleaner for cheap and it looks good on the ol v6.

Also if all goes right ol Crustine is gonna be getting a new engine and trans here somewhat soon. The v6 is great but getting hard to find parts for and doesn't move the truck to fast on the highway. And it seems people want a gold nugget for the bigger v6's so I'm gonna settle for a big block 454. Have a line on a smooth running one for super cheap and also have a line on a 2wd NV4500 5 speed to put behind it. I've been wanting to drive Crustine to work and to the coast and with 180 hp and 4.11 gears getting 10 mpg's that isn't super economically friendly with todays fuel prices and speeds. lol
So! If I'm gonna get lower mpg's I wanna have 400 horse power. Yes I know, I'm demanding. haha

Till next time folks! Hopefully I'll have an engine and trans here soon.
