I think I remember it. did he run with bobby longs crew alot? I know I saw it at evans creek a few times. didnt he have it through the late 90s?

Probably a different guy. IIRC, Henry got rid of his in 93 or 94. He didn't go out much.

Been busy on it but just putting it all back together again. Nothing too worthy of pics :redneck:

 

[pokey]

OK kev here some pics:redneck: got the windshied done and back on. Got the aux gas tank done(had to rework some of andys great work to make if fit though:booo:) put some cool high output led backup lights in, Deciced to rework the pedals as there wasnt much room with the brake on the right of the colume. The gas pedal was going to be a real pain. Now theres almost a little foot room but the gas peadal will work great. still may change the clutch again though just tto get rid of the extra bends. Got the overhead stuff all mounted and got started on the wiring:eek:

[Fordzuki]

Looking good pokey. :awesomework:

Ok addressed the issues with the passenger side header and the starter today. Sure wish I was a better fabricator it sucks having to buy two sets of headers to find ones that work on both sides :booo: Got the linelock installed and plumbed for the front axle. Still hav'nt decided if I should put one on the rear as well:eeek: Got the steering all figured out and put in as well and got the fuel line routed around the steering and header as well.

 

[nate8887]

is there two joints on your steering shaft?

 

[NotSoPC]

is there two joints on your steering shaft?

Yup but looks like it is also mounted to the frame between the two joints so its all good:awesomework:

 

[nate8887]

I knew it was all good I am getting ready to rebuild my steering and wanted to copy his.

 

[zukkev]

Header clearance looks MUCH better Jim!!!:awesomework: Coming together nicely!!!:cool:

jim if you have the ability to do front burns you will love having a lline lock for the rear.
