    pics of my midnite express

    Cool Truck. I'm building a little red but plan to put a 400 with a 4 speed. Did you have to change the floor Hump for the 4speed or was there room as it was. The Cab i'm using had a 3 on the Tree so i not sure if i need to go to the 4 X 4 Hump to get the A833 to fit.

I'm starting a Lil red Big block build and still on the fence with regards to the stacks however i would rather have them and not need them then need them and not have...

    Outer Tie rod

    Hey BoostedLiLRed: I checked my 79 D150 shop Manual but could not find any reference to the pitch of the outer Tierod end. It does have the spec for alignment which is the following: Camber + 1/4 Degree Caster + 1/2 Degree . This probably doesn't help but was the only reference in the front...

    1979 Little Red Project

    I have a question regarding swapping from 727 Auto to 4 Speed with my Little Red project. I am planning to use a 400 Big block with 4 speed. Will i need to change the floor Hump or will the 4 speed fit without having to change the Hump to the high style. I know the 4 X 4 requires a higher hump...

    1979 Little Red Project

    The Frame is actually bent in the front so i'm going to Scrap it when i'm finished. I was actually thinking about cutting it in fron and behind the Cab and putting large casters so i can wheel the Cab and Box around while i work on the little red Frame. I'm going to use the rear Fenders/ Steps...

    Spent a couple of Hours today getting the Seat / Seat belts out and cleaned out the Cab. The floor was pretty much as it was when it left the factory. Very Clean.

    1979 Little Red Project

    Started back on the parts truck today but man was it ever cold here in Texas. 39 Degrees with a cold northerly breeze. Stuck it out for a few hours but man i'm not use to this cold. Must be getting old. Going to use the Cab from this Truck and the two Rear Fenders but all other parts will be...

    1979 Little Red Project

    7mopar: i know wha you mean by logging all the parts because i went through my last project (Which is still ongoing) and took that as a lesson learned. Because i am away from home for extended periods i sometimes get in a hurry to finish things up before leaving so i found i would be missing...

    1979 Little Red Project

    Going to give this a shot but will probably be long periods between post as i work overseas. I did go back to Texas for Xmas and managed to find me a Little Red that was stored behind a Barn in North Texas for 20Years. It looks like someone started to do some work on it at one time because the...

I picked up a 360 last week and have a couple of 727's laying around however i have a good 400 i took out of my Roadrunner so toying with the idea of putting a 400/4speed setup. I have...
