    I've got the bug

    Welcome to the site.. I can't comment on all your questions but there are plenty of people here who can. As far as the brakes go.. when they are in good working order they work well.. Most of your stopping power is coming from the transmission anyway. As far as running RPM's and efficiency, if...

    Stupid Zone inspector

    I checked my local code before purchasing. That's how I wound up with a bobbed deuce. They have a weight and length limit on Commercial Vehicles. However I registered it as Historical so I think I could get around that anyway.. The neighbors actually like it though.. even the ones I don't...

    Sweet! I want a dump on mine too! I plan on using to pickup firewood and stuff.. I bought my 395's from Kenny, just incase you want to upgrade off the NDT's.. But then again with the heavy loads regularly the stock may be better.. Best of Luck with her!

    Shawn, thanks for the sunlight tip, mine's inside too without dryrot.. Didn't think of the UV factor.. I got to go cover up the set of NDT's my Deuce came with originally. Thanks!

    Fuel filters are good

    Yeah, I was missing my primary filter too! Seems like that's not uncommon in these trucks.. Mine hasn't run that much different though..

    Met the former driver of my Deuce

    My wife didn't want it either.. It's called negotiation.. 1. Had to be painted Black instead of Camo.. However I may get her to agree to my new thought.. Gloss back camo pattern on Flat back.. very subtle but cool.. Yeah and she also get's a new kitchen.. not bad I wanted a new Kit too!

    Tires, how cracked is too cracked?

    Sure just get all the rust off first. I need to do the bed liner..well in the bed. I love flat black, it's so easy to touch up. I want to do the Firebird in flat back and the mustang in flat silver.. if I can get it.. My Mits Galant is almost flat black but that's because all the gloss black...

    Tires, how cracked is too cracked?

    Sounds fast but didn't understand most of what you said :D. I have the standard 350 but with a 4 barrel carb, aftermarket intake, headers and electronic ignition. Basically all bolt on stuff and all of which was done before I purchased it. It's fast but not that fast. Plus it's an automatic...
