I dont think that is the kind of juice he as talking about.....

Good Afternoon,

I'm a little late getting this e-mail out.

Kenny is really kicking butt on the body mods. He is making sure everything fits perfect.

Hard to tell from this picture but you can see Kenny has widen the rear cover to have a 3/16" gap.

Tailgate has been smoothed.

You can also see the side of the gate has also been filled.

Cab is ready for Primer. The cab has been widened 3/16" to line up with the bed sides.

Yep, The bed has been extensively work to make sure t fits perfectly with the cab.

Next week the truck should look a little different as it will all be one color.

That is one bad mini truck!!

hahaahh Kenny your f'ed up................ i love it..

That's one hell of a lot of work and it looks great! How's the wheels holding up in the shop environment? My first set of wheels got some scratches from all the grinding dust.

they all do , BUT we send them to a polisher before the car leaves and get them re-polished

wow , that must be true , because everyone says that .

Looking Good Marty! :D

Hi All,

Kenny is really cranking on the Bodywork.

Looking down the side of the truck

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album...12_03_KD_1.jpg

You can see that Kenny has fitted the cladding with the fender.
There used to be a 1/2" gap

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album...12_03_KD_2.jpg

Just a quick shot with the Side Cladding on the Truck.

Hard to tell but it's straight all the way down the side.
The bed is no longer wider then the truck.

One of the most important things I've noticed this week is the fact that
Kenny may have actually used the Tripod.

Lookin good boys

Looking great !! Won't be long now. Any update on the motor build Marty ?

Pretty sure the motor is complete. We were waiting on the pushrods and the incoorect one's came in and now we have the correct one's. I'll check and see if it's done yet.

cruise
 

Okay ill one up you and say this..once we are into the nice weather we need to get your dads car, your truck, notorious and convince Troy to grab chicayne. That would be a cruise to remember!

Sign me up for that cruise.:thumbsup:

Yep - you win

That would be a good time. Maybe Next year when I have the Great Lakes Gathering at my Shop we can convince him to bring it out.

looking really good marty....

unfortunatly my trucks under a foot of snow rite now with no rear end under it.....

Been following this build on here and s10forum.com and this has to be one of the best quality builds around. Keep up the awesome work. Getting this thing completed will be awesome to see!

Good Morning All,

Just a Quick Update.

I've been looking for a Solution for my Wilwood Brake pedal and I've found it.
The bonus is Shannon even offers a Matching Gas pedal.

okay now back to our regulary sceduled posting

Simply beautiful :thumbsup:

Syborg tt,
I was thumbing thru an old copy of Sport Truck Magazine & what do you know, I ran across an article on your build. Sorry I’m so late but congrats! I really enjoyed the read & it left me wanting more of your truck!

Benoit

Thank you very much - it sure has been fun building this truck and i can't wait to start the next project.

Where's the 26's and half-cab body drop and dancing bed?




:lol:


Sweet build up for sure. My first vehicle was a Nissan Hardbody that was lowered on 50 series tires (before big wheels were available of course...).

I always wanted to buy a wrecked/rolled early 90's twin-turbo 300ZX and use the drivetrain & motor with the truck body & frame. I was 17 with no money, a dad who I could convince to help me, and time to day dream.....

Looking forward to seeing pictures of your dime on track day :thumbsup:

I tried to convice Kenny but he said no way. Next project will bring back the dancing bed.

ps - you may have just given the "Stitch Bitch" an idea for his next project. He's alway's loved the Nissan Hardbody.

c'mon Kenny! dancing beds are hawt! Not sure who the "stitch bitch" is, but it would be a fun project.... :_paranoid :D

:thumbsup:

Tracy is "Stitch Bitch" http://www.recoveryroomrodinteriors.com he got the nick name from Troy at Rad Rides.

he does some pretty good work.

the funny part about this is my first build when i was 17 was a 73 chevy truck and yes it did have a tilt bed .

WELCOME TO THE ASPHALT JUNGLE

:bow: :rofl:

i know you want that on you truck ?

I may put it on there..... LOL

Good Morning All,

Every day it just a little bit closer to paint.
