Leon, this is a different truck than the one Richard Miller had. After his wreck I think he repaired it and then sold it. It had a wedge motor in it.

Jeff, thanks for posting those pics & the contact info. for Chris DeSalvo.

That's exactly the paint scheme, minus the contingency decals and South Oak/Spartacus lettering, that was on the truck when the previous owner aquired it. I answered an ad on RJ several years ago for the truck, I believe it was in Ohio with a SB Chevy in it. The local racer I purchased it from ran a 572" B1/Glide combo.

Like a lot of the former PS Trucks I see they cut the cowl hood and added an aero forward facing scoop. Not sure I like the look, I may order another cowl hood from Hairy Glass and try it both ways.

Thanks again for the compliments!

Mike Gray

you're welcome Mike...I'm quite sure Chris will be excited to hear that you have the truck..

Glad to hear it wasn't the truck I thought it was.

Those hoods on the Pro Stock trucks were very trick and worked very well.

JC Childress at Kowalski machine used to work on Ronnie Sox pit crew. He knows quite a bit about these. Give him a call.

Nice truck! Ya gotta turbo it!!!

Mike that is a Beautiful Truck!!! Hope mine turns out half as nice!!

For everyone else. Remember these trucks were running mid 7's all day long with 358cui and W-8 Heads all motor. Just some FYI!!!

I personally would not try going that exact route myself. Small Block shifting at 10,000rpms every pass will eat up some valve springs and other parts fast.

Turbo'd Small Block or 600+ BB with some Predators and maybe some Turbos would be my choices.

BUT always have to look at the rules for the classes at your local venues.

I also now see why the Doors won't work on a factory Dakota Body.

About the only 2 pieces that will work without a lot of re-work and massaging is the tail gate and Dash.

Well Mike when the time comes to move on to the next car you know who to call

Very nice, I hope you enjoy it.
