Could you put a push button start switch in the skulls nose? That would be a bit wierd to pick his nose and the truck starts! Just my way of thinking.......

Tranny is still nuts up. Havent even had it back in the shop yet.

But took a few pics today of the windshield, my 5" factory GM tach and such.

Two things about the front bumper...#1 It is not done yet..still got some tweaking and filling to do to make it look better. And #2 It was already bent, twisted, rusted and generally assed up when I started. So dont be thinking Ol' larpy trashed a perfectly good rare bumper :P

The passenger side front tire is now flat. :P :lol:

Nah, still the same. Aint had the time or energy to mess with it much. I was gonna try and shove it in the shop this week and drop the trans, but the boss came up with these for me to build on top of my regular work. This is set 1 of 3.

Well I drove it today. Until it either a) ran it out of gas or b) the fuel filter clogged.

Turns out the front pump on the trans broke both the ears off the gear. Pulled it out and swapped it out with a pump from another trans.
