I have spent most of the winter and all spring redoing the aluminum interior of my Luv drag truck. Also put on the Aerospace front disc brake set up. That was pretty simple to do. The interior is just about done. Starting to build a new dash and put new gauges in it. I have some pictures to view on my website. http://www.wildluvracing.com, click on Photos-Restoration. To see photos of the truck with everything out click on Restoration Beginning Photos at the top of the Photos-Restoration page. Enjoy:)

Somehow got a comma in your link...

http://www.wildluvracing.com works better

I wish I had a tiny bit of the fabrication expertise you've got... :)

mytmouz: i haven't been on here for a while. Been busy trying to get the Luv back together in between doing other stuff. I missed chatting with you all on here.

nukeday: Thanks for finding the link mistake. Must have hit the wrong button. Thanks for the compliment but I'm not really much of a fabricator. This is my first time ever doing this. A friend of mine who is a fabricator was suppose to do it but he back out on me. So I bought a cheapo bead roller from Habor Freight, another friend of mine gave me a 4' brake and I bought a welder and started.

Hopefully I will be on here more often now. Thanks guys.

Nice ( and fun) ride.
I like that thin front bumper. What is that from?

Really.? I didn't realize they're that thin. I'm more of a 2 headlight guy and don't look to close at the older ones.
I like the way that looks though.

Not sure what the bumper is from. I was on the truck when my dad bought it. Should have some more pics shortly. Should be finished and at the track this saturday if all goes well. Thanks.
