think : "BARNYARD VIPER" in the dragweek thread in the race section........

it's a stepside, but it will give you an idea.

It's a 3/4 ton, interesting choice for a gasser.

You may find that half ton spindles mount right up to your axle so you can get rid of the 8 lug wheels in front.

I remember seeing a baby blue Sweptline truck built as a Gasser, someplace, not very long ago. Mile high nose, slicks, and headers hanging out the wheel wells. (I think, this old age stuff sucks. LOL) Sure can't remember where I saw it though. Gene

I am building a mid 80s gasser truck using a 4x4 chassis. replacing front diff with a straight tube axle using the 4x4 yokes/BJ/spindles/steering linkage for the nose up 2x gasser look.

stock front leafs and remove blocks in rear to drop the back end down, should ride and handle well for street duty.

Ifin I had a 65-71 truck I would have already had a gasser by now.

so I have been at the drawing board and have a ACME gasser kit on the way.

I did just score a leaf/axle from a A100 van last weekend but I want a more macho looking gasser look with a 4x4 chassis.

and my PVC fenderwell headers work good till they get hot!
