Looking good Trent! Good Luck!:thumb:


My garage is only clean for millisecs. I have to use high speed photography to catch a "clean shot". :D

Nearly everytime we ran Casper at a competition event starting in 2006, it was a "thrash" to make the race. I keep swearing I will have the truck ready a month before a race, to allow for testing, but never have.

Nice!!!

FYI you can get fittings for the master cyl and PS pump and then run hose to clean up some more...if you wanted.

looks a lot closer than mine is to being ready:(

Looks clean but how well does the fuse box lid come off or is the pic just throwing it off.I like the new front bumper.

That truck looks evil and sitting on the lites will be a nice intimitation look much less the way it'll fly. It would be fun to see the guy next to you lookin' and cookin' in his mind.

Thanks Henry , the back is trimmed "flush" so it can slide in and out .

looks great Trent , its not a question if its fast but just how fast

Thanks Craig , i have high hopes but time will tell .


I made some good head way in the last 24 hours . Not sure why the pics look so blury , on the computer they are much better but photo bucket not so much .

Radiator moved to the bed , I have a tonnue cover this year also to cover up the bed , it is getting cluttered back there with all the stuff relocated, and will be getting sand blasted and repainted when i get home , the under seal stuff i used didn't hold up well at all . This is a temp setup the radiator i want is 800.00 :eek: so this will have to suffice until later .

I got the battery relocated to the bed ( passenger side frame rail in front of tire ) and also got the kill switch and 100% of the battery system re-wired including, extra engine gorunds, feeding the fuse box , ect .
