i need headlights , wiring harness, king pins, wheels, ( had a deal on some but that fell thru), brake lines,tires. possibly another gas tank, glass, put the roof on and floor pans! then some test drives and sould be ready to go, i havent pulled the motor yet from the 66 chevy cause i am driving it! but before i put it in i want to put new seals in the bottom , already did the top end! head gaskets and valve cover intake , just need to do pan and timing cover and front and rear seals! also new seals for tranny, maybe a new cultch,.. anyways Jesus shall make a way , I know He's going to bless me!![cl

oh iam not going to race, just watch and talk about Jesus!
if ya was about to break the world speed record , you might want to talk someone who knows him before ya get in that car, 2 prayers is better than one!:D
 
i told yall , Jesus would bless me!!! i went to see a freind today about 5 little bolts for my dash, instead of drivin all the way to town , who lives about a 1/2 mile away, while i was there i , he asked me how my truck was coming i told him slow but goin! he asked what i needed and i told him it all till i got down to the wheels the lasy thing on my list!, well want to run something wide on the rear , but hadnt found nothing yet, so he said he might have somethin, we walked arounf the back of the shop , and these are what he said he had, well i said i would like to have them but i was broke and didnt have a job,right now, he said thats ok you can have them!:) and not only that told me to be at his place at 5 in the morning and gave me a job!!!!!!!
