HAULER GETS OLD/NEW SHOES

In case you don't know your urban slang. "Shoes" means rims/tires. There are only several people than can appreciate this photo. I spent today polishing the old rims I had bought for the truck about 3 years ago. Where? On Ebay. Cheap!! Cheap!! I went and got new center caps and lug nuts to finish them off. Not bad looking I must say. I am going to stick with 275/60 15 for the tire size. The old 454ss trucks had those for tires and since I am doing a 350ss look, its only natural that I use some of the same parts the 454ss used. Just a quick update on things. LATER...
P.S. If you super size the photo, you can see me in the center cap. I love this new camera!!!

HAULER UPDATE

Now that I have the Capri mostly together. I figured of would give some time to the old pick-up that hauls it to the track. I have had the truck for about a year now and I have done nothing other than some bodywork. Well, this evening I received boxes of parts from Jegs and Summit Racing. The parts included a set of Rapid Fire AC Delco spark plugs, Hypertech distributor cap & rotor, Hypertech performance coil, Hypertech power charger, intake tube, and a K&N filter. Wow!!! What a difference. The truck starts immediately and the throttle really snaps on the old truck. The single 3" exhaust I did sounds much better now. The old rotor cap looked like a coral reef inside(very crusty). The truck will probably get much better gas mileage too. I also added a MONSTER TACH to the truck, so I can watch the RPM's when towing. It looks cool. It was dark, so I'll take a picture at a later date. Oh, I also added some tunes to the truck, so that I can have something to listen to on the way to the track. The pictures give you an idea. LATER...
