Racetruck is finally finished at the chassis shop.

Got the call today. Going to look at it tomorrow night. Truck weighed in at 2094 lbs without the transmission and tc. The engine is in it, but doesn't have the rods and pistons in it. I'm guessing it will be around 2350 when it's all done. I'll update with pics soon as I get it.

Yeah man,........

Post up the pics when you get a chance.

BTW,.....What's the motor, tranny, chassis specs ?

Engine: 641" BBF, C head, TR, EFI alky, drysump
Trans: Glide
Chassis: ProMod style double frame rail, cm, SFI 25.2 certified
Built to run in the 4.70-5.30 heads-up classes

David ,i'm sure this is probably one of the nicest trucks on the planet!! I can hardly wait to see the pics. Congrats ,I'm sure you've been waiting for this day for a long time!!

Looking foward to seeing some pictures!

Which truck is this going in? The weight sounds very impressive, especially being a truck. I think Doug R's was about 2750lbs and I found that to be impressive

1974 F100, all steel except the hood and front bumper. If it's not holding exterior paint, it has been removed as far as the steel body is concerned.

cool can't wait to see pics congrats

I have seen Dave's work, VERY impressive to say the least. That truck will make everybody sell there cars... Can't wait to see pic's.. Dave how is Racing Ray doing . I miss the Good Ole Boy

I'm sure it will be awesome. Daves work is amazing and if he let someone do work for him, they must be amazing also.

David,
Congrads I know how long you've waited. Hope to lay eyes on it this summer. Any chance of bringing it to the bash?

I think I would have to cut a bunch of corners to get it to the track this year. If I don't paint it, run the old draglites, and leave the chassis bare, maybe.

cant wait to see it David ....

Speaking of Racin' Ray, he hasn't called me in years. He don't race his car none and I heard he was married now. His phone is disconnected and I don't know where he lives now. He calls Bobby Anthony every now and then and I will try to get Bobby to get his new number. If I have to, I'll go to where he used to live and ask the neighbors. I miss talking to him.

Don't rush it. Take your time and get it just like you want it. Now go take some pics of it and show us what you got!

Couldn't... agree more... ...

Can't wait to see it. Be sure to find Ray and bring him to the Bash with you. I liked that yellow Mustang of his.
