    Cin- I was all over that forum cuz of my last car. I like the crowd over there so ive stuck around for a while. I dnt really go on the comp too much anymore so i rarely post anyway, I troll most of the time.

    NotAvailable- I main thing i like about EFI is that theres very lil vaccum lines to deal with. downside is pricier parts... I still wana do a 22R or 22RE tho

    Yota- if its the cream color its Rustoleum "Ivory silk" satin finish.

    i was actually guna goo a satin black but then i started tryin to find another color that wouldnt get lost in a crowd. I saw this color n like it. everyone keeps sayin it looks like pancake batter... so i guess it is wat it is haha.

    and no, theres no updates except ima start putting the motor back together as best i can. Considering im missing a set of head bolts. i guess il jus have to start 1 side

    i love this truck. i love all the work you've done. i love that it's been in your backyard this whole time. this is probably my favorite build i have seen because it reminds me of what i'll be doing in my backyard lol. good work man, keep it up!
