    Thanks guys.

    It is all back together now. Been sitting in the garage without any eyes being laid on it in a few weeks. Might shake it's legs for a bit this weekend if it's nice out.

    And I think it will be for sale here soon too. [emoji27]

    Damn man that engine looks " Be You Tea Full"

    How long did it take you to do the rewire & was it difficult to do???

    Thanks man.

    It took about 12hrs to do it all in total. I mostly had to strip the harness', situate where I wanted everything, and extend a few wires.

    Great looking graphics. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: They hold up well to heat?

     

    Nice looking wrap on your headers, plug boots, and hoses. What material did you use on the plug boots and hoses?

     

    The paint itself is tested to over 400*.

    The headers actually look like shit. They were about the only thing I had off the truck and didn't do anything to. As for the plug boots, they are a DEI spark plug boot protector. I was going to get them in black but went with these.

    The hoses are done with expanded hose and wire sleeve. You can get them in a ton of colors, but it gets pricy. I actually used 2 kits because one kit didn't have enough to do what I wanted done.

    Thanks guys.

    And more pics coming. And maybe a video too.

    I just hope it runs half as good as it looks. It was one of those projects that was left sitting for almost a year and I had to remember what was done, and needed done.

    I really wish I would have kept the fogger on it. It definitely would have looked and been fast! Should have everything on and ready to go tonight. Waiting to hear back on my tune now. Need to have this done by next friday

    Not what I want to hear. My daughter is 5 now, so I better start saving as much as I can. Lol.

    I thought I could get away by spending the bare minimum to get started. I could have just went with what we had, and did some paint work and motor rebuild. That would have saved a ton. You can find a good car ready to roll for around 4k. But if you don't have all the accessories then the price can quickly double.

     

     

     

    Good to know. I would love for my kids in the future (dont have any quite yet) to get into Jr. Drags, but that might not be the best choice to spend money on. But we will see when that time comes.

     

    Welcome back BTW

    Everyone who I talked to that has or is in on jr's said that the time spent with the kids far outweighs the money spent on the sport. I hope the same goes with us.

    Well I have been off the site for a while, and hopefully in the next month or so I will be done with my truck. I got into a project that totally has consumed my time and money as I let dust collect on the truck.

    I picked up a Jr Dragster for my oldest son who is 8. Gave it to him for christmas, and since it was a roller I had free rein to do what I wanted to do to it. Nope! I found another complete car that I only had to change the body color, and go through the motor on it..... Nope. That snowballed into a full on build and customization to it. Then I needed a trailer to haul it. Got a deal on a used 20' Haulmark that needed a little tlc. That too went farther than I thought it would. Damn.... Now I have to have something that can tow it in the pits, and haul the family around the track with..... Found a cheap golf cart that needed a lot of lovin. I thought that I would just put a new top on it, cover the seats, and put a back seat on it after I got it running..... Nope. So after enough money that I could have invested in a twin turbo LSX, I have ALMOST completed this project. The wife put a stop on the spending since we just bought land to build our new house on. So that means the truck will be put back together with the parts I have for it already, and what I don't have everything for I will be selling. And here is the reason for it.

     

    Before with the original car in the background, and the truck collecting dust.

    Some as it sits now. Everything was basically made by me or modified along with the chassis.
