    I felt my Econo "game" has been a little weak lately so I bought this today to add to the stable. I ll be putting my other pickup and my 67 8 door up for sale to offset the cost of this one.

    Info will follow as time permits but I wont even have it here before Carlisle. This baby is loaded with high dollar goodies and it screams. It ran an 11 with a different gear set than the 3:5's it has in it now. Its set up for nitrous too but I ll never use it. The motor is brand spankin new,stroked 351 windsor.

    Thanks guys for the compliments. Having it shipped makes me nervous as hell. Its a 408 stroker for the record. It hit 118 in the quarter. That was on the first motor which was actually smaller. A mishap with the nitrous cooked that motor so in its place is this brand new bigger one with 150 miles on it. I have no plans to be using the nitrous and racing this truck. Insurance wont pay off if found that you are racing it. Cant wait for this one to arrive but it'll probably be after Carlisle for sure.

    tim, you can ignore my other post about pics of your new truck, sweet! hope you have garage space for it. it would be a sin to let it sit out side.

    Wow, very nice. Pay the money to have it transported in style and safety; not the place to skimp to save only a little bit. Nice choice.
