C6 57 on the trailer
Well We have been workin hard, We got alot of work done. We took it to the AWS meeting last night for the welding students. I think they were impressed, But they wanted to know why we tig welded the chassis and not mig welded. Tell me what you think.
I think the dog likes it too.

Impressive!
This is one of the most impressive truck I've ever seen, and it's not done yet. I love that body style. If I ever get my '52 done maybe I'll attempt a 55-57. This thing is one hell of an inspiration to do so.

That chassis is a work of art, it will look unbelievable when it gets coated.

That induction system will certainly be singing it's own song.
I don't suppose you have a dyno video with that setup 
, do you?

The injection is from kinsler fuel injection,
I do plan to run this thing at the Buttonwillow Raceway. I want to kick the crap out of the snobby guys at the track in their CTS caddies. They blow by me in my mustang with their A/C on and their driving suits and such.
I plan to have the truck goin to paint July. I need to work on the sheetmetal.
