Mr Tim McMaster was also busy this weekend working on the Monster Hauler engine.

Cam specs are, .475" lift 288* adv duration. The advertised duration equate to 236* net at .050". It will have a very nasty sound to it.

.010 \ .010 crank to replace the one that came out, which was 100% shot.

Bumpers are pulled, all the glass is pulled. Drivers door striped and primed. Pass door gutted. Have more welding to do and much more prep to get ready for paint, but making good progress. The weather has been amazing. Still amazing how straight this truck is and happy it was only painted once. Taking down to bare metal is pretty easy.

what kind of trans was in your truck

Drivers door is all striped down now, ready to prep for paint. Still welding holes up as well. Passenger side next then front and rear windows. Windshield needs replaced anyway and it will make for a much better paint job with all those things out of the way. I'm super picky when it comes to painting, a little extra time spent on removing things makes the final result much, much better.

I'm just glad the bumper wasn't attached to the body like so many of them are. The bumpers are always bent and if attached to the main body will jack up the bed sides too. This ones has nice straight sides, so far ha ha. Only one tiny spot of filler. Since it was repainted, I could tell they had welded up a bunch of holes in the past before the repaint.

They were often a dealer option. Used to see them with the dealer's name stamped into them. Chuck

Great project love the pics.
re the  rear checker plate bumper,  are they home brew or was somebody selling them. I have an identical one on my 56?
