He didn't even want to bring the truck, had to be encouraged into bringing it and the boat. Poor old guy, gets a trophy! That's a cool truck and it stood out from far away! He also crashed the FCBO get together, and doubled our numbers!

Bet that made his day. He just did not want to be botherd or felt no one would have any interest. Beings it a Desoto what engine? My imagination goes to early hemi

desoto sheared the flt6 and poly's from dodge . but desoto was exported only from the usa . according to ''don bunn and tom brownell 's dodge pickups history and resto guide 1918-1971'' book .

it would be sweet with a 276 or 291 . a beast with a 330 or 345 . i've got desoto's 276 and 330 . my desoto 291's are race motor cores for a blown gas salt flats racer . i have chrysler hemis as well for other projects ,
i'm trying to get it all together , a 38 d100 pickup , got a rusty one for its bed and fenders for another , so the leftovers with be a glass fender n hood grille shell , running boards n rear fenders , stock cab n doors . the bed will be formed from heavy steel sheet for weight . just looking for the 200 mph mark .
