    I'm about to finish up a '34 Ford 5-window coupe (one of my old man's cars). The car was purchased as a 12 year old all original resto. Since then its gotten a 9" rear, disc brakes, lowered suspension, T-5 trans, and full tilt N/A flathead. Engine work was done by me, installation and chassis work was done by a complete dumb A**. We got the car back a few months ago and it still needs a floor and a redo on some of the front chassis (mostly cutting and rewelding). The guy installed a junk fuel system that doesn't work and I thing he installed a junk distributor. Got some bugs to work out and some finishing touches. When finished I have a car to put my Tommy Gun to use.

    BTW: I doubt there is any interest on this web-site, but I've got a brand new French Flathead block for sale. Never even been machined. Asking $2000.00 if you know anyone interested. I think I've got the correct oil pan and pickup tube for it as well. This is a very rare block, sought by flathead racers for its ability to built BIG. 300+ cubic inches.

    However, you're already talking bs and the truck is on jack stands, lol.
    Get it on the track, run some respectable times, then say "to all the haterz" because that vid is weak lol.
    You got a long ways to go to compete with the turbos!

    the OP said LS trucks but idk where some mentioned where LS swapped or not.

    the 64 ton I mentioned with either be getting a 409 or duramax, but the motor comes last other than paint, still gotta swap a 4x4 front axle under it.
    projects...hmm.... im raising 150 head of cattle and having to bottle feed a twin right now, working 50-60 hours a week, and im only 20
