There is a guy on FTE that did a '40 pu on an exploder chassis and it looked real nice, but it had cruise control and airbags and lots of other hi tech stuff that I couldn't get into. I still think FTE. And as for the early V8 world, I really will show up soon with my long anticipated 255 cu in merc build. I am nearing completion of a shop annex with all my good 59ab and 8ba blocks on stands. In the meantime I bolted up a crappy POS center grill section to tie the two fender sections together as a dummy to test fitment.
