Engine swap for the first mod. You bad@ss!

thank you

right now just sourcing parts and funds for it. once all parts are purchased then mock up and off to body shop

this makes me sad. you make it look so easy.

thank you all feed back is much appreciated

looks good. why did you keep the steering box though?

Sorry for posting late status of progress. Kept steering box as this is just a daily and not really something im trying to dump much funds as well as not being able to source the parts in time for fabricator. Agagin sorry for the late status but as always your feedback is much appreciated. Im still learning as I go and do not know much of these swaps so i learn form other's builds and of course searching online.

gas tank sump fabbed

while waiting for paint we love to go fishing so during a a fishing trip with my father, my son decided to change the color after looking at my father's shirts lol originaly it was going to Toyota Venza brown but now we went with a hugger orange


Orange it is!

I think that I liked the old brown better. Had more patina. The new orange is really nice, though.
