The shop is actually 30' X 30'. My truck sits on one side and the bass boat on the other side. And, thanks for the comments. It's taken a while to get it to where it is now.
A few of the nice things it has........central heat and air, Direct Tv, soon to have the running water and the normal set of tools most people have.
I've got tons of FORD related posters, licience plates from everywhere and window stickers......ie, Jegs, Summit and that kinda stuff.
Soon to have a Dairy Queen sign hanging somewhere. Its huge...5' tall, about 8' wide and about a foot thick. It was gave to me, so, I'll hang it somewhere.......lol.

His wheels look like they might be exactly what I have on my truck.

Your wheels are close. Mine are Weld Pro Stars. Picked them up at the Pate Swapmeet last year.
I'm a fan of mixing stuff up, so, I bought so good ol' slots with big and littles also to throw on the ol truck too..

dammit I knew I was close :D

I've confused mine with the Weld Pro Stars before actually, and thats what I was thinking when I first saw yours. But then I saw the black center caps and thought I was onto something. oh well, guess I was over thinking it. :wink:


Anywho, truck looks great. How wide are the tires on it anyway? I've heard you can stuff 13" wide tires if you move the springs, or do away with them which are my intentions.

Also, whats up with the GM style distributor. I just mean the coil mounted on the cap. Is that a common ford thing, I've always seen alot of GM's like that but not many fords.

I bought a billett HEI unit made for Fords off of Ebay. I kinda liked the look( no coil placed somewhere). 8)

And to think that I spent time looking for a distributor with the smallest cap I could find, and love the looks of my blaster 2 coil right next to the damn thing. :lol:


Anyway, like I said, the truck looks damn good. Pull out that knocking thing and replace it with a 700 inch blown alcohol injected big block.


Or I guess that $500 302 you were talking about would work to. 8)
