ImpoSStor SS

Josh, I'll be across the street from you at Lighthouse of Oakland County like the last few years. I'll look for you. Stewart Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Tapatalk

Bob, Sorry to hear about your Dad. You're right, mine's an A. I don't know anyone into T's. I can give you the name of the appraiser I've used. Beyond that, Your best bet might be to contact someone in a local chapter of a Model T club. The old guys in the Model A club know everything about their cars and are always willing to share their knowledge. I'm sure the Model T guys will be the same way. Good luck!

I've been working alot with Sunday being my only day off. Put me down as a firm "maybe".

Vince, I believe Motor City Speed in Walled Lake has the old W2W dyno. Here's a link: http://www.motorcityspeedonline.com/

I plan to be in Pontiac all day Friday & Saturday and might be at the Moose Preserve at Square Lake & Woodward Thursday evening with the turbo Buick guys.

I considered wiring mine to the brake pedal but decided durability might be an issue. I recommend you leave the solenoid in place without powering it. It takes additional effort to shift into reverse but not an objectional amount. I have plenty of leverage with the long stick but a friend did the same thing in his Mustang Cobra with a short stick and it works great.

I'm curious - How are you going to wire the reverse lock-out solenoid?

Looks Good!

One real, one not.

Keep in mind that the early Silverado SS prototype's started life as GMC Sierra's. They were available with the 6.0-AWD before the Silverado's so that's what W2W used. Kurts red turbo SSS (not the concept truck) is actually a GMC.

If it's an extended cab it would be considered a clone if you did the cladding & bumper cover. If it's a regular cab with everything it would be a PHANTOM. A clone duplicates something that already exists (like building a GTO from a LeMans or a Yenko Camaro from a base Camaro). A PHANTOM is something that was never available from the factory (like a '67 Nova convertible).

Thanks, whichever way you meant it.

For those who haven't seen the back:

That's the Chevrolet Concept that I patterned my truck after. I decided that cutting off the back of my chassis and replacing it with the coil spring back half was more than I wanted to do in my garage. The rest of my build is close to that truck including the cloth seats. Mine does have a few more creature comforts (including carpet) and a Rotrex supercharger. The RST roll pan is a poor imitation of the one on the concept. Mine is a modified BSER pan.

My truck still has the leaf springs. What made you think I'd changed it?
