yeah it is...out of my price range...but I'm kinda biased to Ford trucks just cause moms step dad (I guess cant remember) had a Ford, and lasted 20 years till the body gave out, then just switch the engine to another truck chassis lol.

tsk tsk. I vote Chevy! personally the new F150s are kinda ugly and the biggest V8 you can get is a 5.4L. I'd get the Tundra out of those the V8s in them are based off the chevy 5.7L 350 (I'm no being biased, those are good motors) plus it's a toyota so resale should be good and toyota isnt going anywhere

the problem with the new chevys: they still havent fixed the whole randomly-breaking-down problem ...

[RSX99]

6.2l being offered either as of now or soon.

My new car.
Look! I'm actually doing something!

Ripped out all the headliner, except for the piece that was on the sunroof cover thing. That'll just stay on because the sunroof assembly is gonna be coming out anyways!



Leaks maybe?




Motor mounts and new water pump to be installed another day.


Full of crap that was ripped out.

After it was vacuumed.



HAI!


Lets go for a ride!



Smoke and no idea why. =[


As the car is right now.

The passenger seat is rocking a lot because it's missing a nut and bolt to hold one bracket side down, so I left it out until I fix it tomorrow hopefully.

OH! I also got a new passenger headlight lense!


BTW, the neighbors love me. NOT.

Ya, I never realized how big inside it was until I took everything out to clean it. Everything went back in except the headliner and the passanger seat because I need to fix the seat.

The headliner is staying out, and I need to head to pick n pull and see how much it'd cost for a sun roof cover off another 244. I'm just going to seal it and rivet it closed, and remove the whole assembly inside the car.

ALSO, the beard still has a couple months until I even consider shaving it.

Yep this is my monster that i was driving for awhile... But i solder her to start another project car =).








Thing was a monster too drive... But I wanted a motor with alittle more displacement then a 1.6L... So my next build will be using a H22.
