Danny Posted October 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 This is the truck that I had in high school that I am modeling the KC after. I still have the truck and the pics of the primered truck is the same truck as it seats today. My friend Dave Hamada who has passed away designed this for me back in the 80's the V8 was put in before the body style change. I had the body changes made back in the late 80's, Everything is all hand fabricated metal no fiberglass this was done by Dennis Ercek in Redondo Beach CA were he had a body shop, who worked for Carroll Shelby back in the 60's. I will finish this some day but for now I need to get done with the KC. 3 Quote Link to comment

Danny Posted October 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 I got the shell back from my fiberglass guy then it went straight to paint. Now the shell is on the truck. I decided to make get rid of the plastic relay cover in the engine bay and replace it with an aluminum one that I made. I also had a new plug wire guide made that worked out a little better. 3 Quote Link to comment
