Actually you will probably need new TIRE's for the rear before you need anything else. Probably on a monthly basis LOL. Also noticed the reinforcing on the back of the rear axel - should hold up to a few pony's

I got VERY lucky on finding that rear end on ebay.

It, IIRC, is only 1/4 inch too wide on each side, but I already have fender flares so I think it will work, but don't know until I get the bed on.

Very nice "clone" you have there! Makes me kinda wish I had my 1969 Torino Cobra again but......

Thank you. That was my first true full restoration.

I learned to weld on that car. I just swapped a Tremec Tko500 in it vs the old toploader 4 speed, so I'm itching to drive it a bit.

Thanks.

I finally got the truck into the paint booth so I can get some touch up done from last years paint job.

Spent all day yesterday moving cars around to get everything where it should be.

Also, the yellow in the pictures is nearly orange, or what I would call a school bus yellow as looking at it in person, but for some reason the camera makes it look yellow.

Very nice!!! Was wondering how you were gonna finish off the exhaust. I also know how you feel with pic colors - I probably have 1,000 pics of my purple truck and only a few show the correct color. Assuming no mufflers between the engine and the turbos, your exhaust should have a pretty incredible sound! I assume that is an "H" pipe just before the tail pipe clamps?
