I remember back when I rode the school bus George McDonald ( local small town mechanic car sales) had two of these wagons sitting on his lot and they both had 348's and I wanted one or both of them. George sold Dad a (yellow with black touch up paint which ended up hot rod flat black) 56 Chevy pickup I learned how to drive in this truck use to take it out in the hay field and practice.

Gonna put that tripower setup on that fine build?

Pretty awesome build. Your time tables put me to shame, I know you have to have 1000 man hours into your build .
