Ok with the interior done I will be moving on to the wiring, but first I have worked on the exhaust and air intake system and added some more hoses.   I had to add an extension to the air intake pipe so that it would go into the fire wall. |

Well I have been working on the same four instruction steps for a month now and there is still more to do. I desided from the start that some things would have to be built from scratch. One would be the exhaust stack so last night set about doing just that. So here we go.... The heat guard.....plastic tube with holes drilled.  New exhaust pipe.  Dry fitting.  Exhaust pipe with BareMetal foil added.  Bracket added to heat shield and more dry fitting.   Foil added to heat shield.  More dry fitting.  Finished exhaust stack.  Beginning to look like a truck.  Added trim and lights to the hood.  Thanks for looking and questions and comments are welcome. |

Wow! Everything is just beautiful! The paint finish, weathering and detail. What did you use for your wire harness conduit and radiator hoses? The conduit looks to be guitar string but I can't tell for sure.

Suddenly I feel the urge to listen to some Jerry Reed songs... Smokey and the Bandit is one of those never dying childhood memories. Man, I was in love with Sally Field back then! |
