That's cool Raf. Is it going to make an appearance at the Donut Cutter?
Most likely... I want to get some miles on it to de-bug it then paint it... hope to be painting it by mid July(maybe sooner)..... we'll see how the de-bugging goes

Looking good...
Thanks.... I'm sure it'll look alot better once it has some color on it but thats about a month away... they all sorta look the same when your looking at a bunch of tubing.... I guess I could have done a nicer job with the silicone... I used silicone as a isolator anywhere that metal contacted metal so it wont rattle

That's a Nice Rampage you got there Mr.P. Will you be towing a small trailer when you do drag week or will you have enough room for your extras in the truck ?
In a couple of weeks or so I'll build a trailer... there's no bed anymore... that's filled.... the cap that was on it will be the top of the trailer with a couple of hatch type cylinders to open it... the trailer will only be about 3' tall
That's a neat Idea for a trailer, I can't wait for Billy, D.j. and your Drag week Road reports Keefe
I'm not going this year... didnt know if I would be ready in time so I didnt register and now its full so I'll be there next year with my buddy in his 52 ford PU... he won his class the 2 years I went with him

Figured I'd put the fire up link on here.... when I checked the timing the other day it was 16* so it was 16* on the fire up... didnt realize I had a locked dist in it(thought it had advance) but when I advanced it up to 34* it really came to life.... here is the fire up video http://youtu.be/lqwzI9_EZ_YI got 2 more circuits done on the wiring yesterday so its getting closer to being done

The sweet sound of a Mopar... Nice work man...
Thanks DJ... I just installed both accelerator pumps and checked the timing(I had the dist out to move it 1 tooth) so reset it at 34*... now it has some snap to it... I still need to get a vac reading to see if the PV is open... its running pretty fat

This is where it stands today... engine runs fine... need to put the carpet in, body work and paint... I have the windshield for it and will get it installed in the spring.... and after all the work to keep the hood hinges, I'm gonna make it a pin on like the hood is made for (so it will lay nice)... engine bay
