I saw this while driving around one day.

I talked to a couple people and I guess it's been sitting there for years. One of these days I'm gonna go knock on his door and see if he's willing to part with it.

Hopefully that's not one of those Ebay blowers is it???

Nice truck though, still, i'd get rid of that campar. Or i'd spray it black.

Hard to tell in the pic but it looks like that scoop is just bolted to the hood, definatly not a blower under there.

hard to tell by the low rez pictures but it looks kinda like there could possibly be a carb or 2 under that bird catcher. With the measurements I have taken from my truck I figure my air breathers will be sticking up about that high or a little taller. Hopefully I will have my motor and tunnel ram in place this coming up weekend.

went and talked to the guy today and got a couple more pics

It's not supercharged but it does have a 350 with turbo 350 tranny. Everything was done professionally back in the day in Cali. Has full cage, fuel cell in the bed, and a few other neat little things. The truck runs and drives but the guy just doesn't have much interest in it anymore. He has $4k into the motor but he's willing to let the whole truck go for $3k.
