Heck i wasn't sure if i was going to make it home with that crazy guy on the plane. It was close the Flight Attendants wanted him off the plane and the Pilot said that he would have to freak out just a little more and then they would kick him off. The good thing was they put the big muslce bound guy next time him for the remander of the flight and that did quiet him down just a little.

I am glad you liked the build book - it should be cool to see it completed.

Yep - Indy - Can't wait !!! :thumbsup:

By any chance is this the truck with the A-pilars reshaped to flow with the top of fenders? If so do you have any pics?
BTW, this truck is freakin awsome!:hail:

yep thisis the truck. I'll try to post pics tonight or tommorow when i find them.

syborg tt 06-05-2007 07:27 PM

Okay I know we've been a little sleepy with the updates. But not to worry were working on the trucks. Just trying to gather parts for the engine.

Guy at Rockfordracecraft has been working with Jessels on the Lifter and shaft mount rockers. Once we have those we should be pretty close to sealing up the motor.

On a side note Ron ( Wilson Muscle Cars ) and & I have been workng on the locking versions of the hood pins. We just want to have options.

Good Day All,

I know it's shocking actually it's amazing.
We have Pictures - only 3 but we actually have Pictures.
Yahooooooo!!!

This is the first Photo (using the term photo loosely here)
I think it's the side of the truck with some string running down it.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album..._06_20_023.jpg

Yep I was correct -- it's the side of the truck.
The Guy's are actually working on aligning the bed width with the cab width.
This is not for the faint at heart

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album..._06_20_024.jpg

The side has been pulled out to match the widest part of the cab.
Next, they are going to cut the back of the cab and pull it out to match the side of the bed.
Our goal is to have a perfectly straight line down the side of the truck.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album..._06_20_025.jpg


I can't wait to see it in person.
But for now I will just have to live with Pictures.

ps - not to worry new camera is on the way.

Sales@Dutchboys 06-21-2007 01:54 PM

Cant wait to see it in person!:thumbsup:

T Bell 06-28-2007 06:07 AM

what's the latest? I have been so inspired that I've found a S-10 extended cab at my brother in laws mom's house. He says it has sat there for 8 years. Reason: some wire that they didn't fix shorted and burned the engine bay. But if I can get it for next to nothing, I'll take it on.

i will anwser this question because i have it in our shop , we have the bed off and cut the bedsides off so we can make the bed wider so the sides look flat . then we made the front bed panel square because it was round and did not look good . also we made the tailgate fit the hole .
next we reinstall the bed and cut the cab and widen it to fit the bed .
dont ask for photos ! lol i will have marty some after we install the bed .

Okay Guy's I've sent him a camera and i know he's taken pictures ( 24 i think ) and he's holding them hostage and won't share them.

Anyone want to go over to Kenny's shop and see if you can convince him to hit the send key on his computer. Mind you, you better be a big guy because he's a biggen and he might kick your ars. :_paranoid

Your welcome and not a problem have at it. That's why i post pics.

syborg tt 07-10-2007 09:25 PM

Good Morning All,

The Guy's at Kenny Davis Hot Rods have been hard at work with way to many projects.
Dads 57 is back at the shop and the Camaro they are working on is just incredible.
Looks like it's time for another road trip to see all of them.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album.../Autometer.jpg

All the hard work is paying off, I can add one more hat to my collection.
We wanted a gauge set that would compliment the truck's theme and Autometer was the only Choice.
The new Automaker's gauges will look right at home in the Dash of Syborg.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album..._07_02_001.jpg

It's hard to believe that all but one of these gauges are going to fit in the Dash.
3655 Sport Comp II Water Temp
3692 Sport Comp II Volt
3656 Sport Comp II Oil Temp
3603 Sport Comp II Boost (mechanical)
3663 Sport Comp II Fuel Pressure
3653 Sport Comp II Oil Pressure
3616 Sport Comp II Fuel Level
3688 Sport Comp II Speedo
3697 Sport Comp II Tach

Mounted in the Center Consule
3657 Sport Comp II Trans Temp

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album..._07_02_002.jpg

Every Guage was specifically choosen.
Five of the Small Guages are Full Sweep / Two of them are Partial Sweep
The two Partial Sweep guages will be mounted in the outside triangle of the dash layout.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album..._07_02_004.jpg

I'm really looking forward to seeing if we can hit 160mph with this mini-truck.
