Post New Guy
Hello my name is Mike and I live in Memphis.
I purchased a 72 SWB about 3 months ago. It came from the factory with a 307 and 3 on the tree. It now has a 454 with TH400. We have in the last couple weeks pull the 292 cam out and installed new cam bearings, a comp XE268 cam, lifters, valve springs and Magnum roller timing set. It has headers and 3 inch flowmaster exhaust system. Edelbrock performer RPM intake and Carburetor. With the rest of the truck stripped down and getting it ready to paint. I also have a 70 Chevelle but have back-off doing anything to it here lately, because of the truck.

Mike

These are pictures taken the first day after purchasing the truck. I had just polished the aluminum wheels to brighten them up some.

These pictures are of the truck stripped down. The truck will be painted bright white with alabaster white pearl clear coat. It will have all new black interior with black and white houndstooth seat cover, new chrome bumpers, smooth tailgate with relocator handle, and rear LED tail lights and new front head lights.
