[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3901786, member: 15054"] I do have one I will not sell. I got it when I was 17. Had a 396" with dual 4 AFB carbs 12.5 compression in it that my dads fishing /hunting buddy pulled from his super Gas 1965 chevelle it went 9.8 in the 1/4 in the chevelle. Wife which was my girlfriend then got pregnant and I sold it to my fishing /hunting buddy for the same price I paid for it 700 bucks. I tried for many years to get it back and offered him much more than he paid. It sat since I know 1972 as it was a wedding present to my dads buddy from his wife. Never got it on the road. 10 years later I come home and that truck is in my driveway. My wife bought it for a birthday present to me from my buddy and her for 900 and then it sat another 2 years in my back yard and I had enough. That truck will be put on the road. 3 months later I had removed the straight front axle removed and sold off and the 57 chevy rear end that was under it was replaced with a 9" and front suspension came from a Pinto I got at Puckets. Sold off the rest of the pinto and was ahead 45 bucks. Ford truck leafs out back. I built the front end so it tilts and slides off and the bed tilts. Chevy power and TH350 transmission. It has had a few different cams and intakes and a roller engine. Engineless now but got one on the stand and porting heads for it. This is it and it will not be sold. I was offered 35K for it 5+ years ago and turned the guy down. He then told me to give him a price as he wants it. NOT FOR SALE. This one has cruised the highway at 145 MPH and spun the rollers at Moboost's shop to 165 MPH. He makes me only use second gear for my pulls now :) 1947 Dodge [ATTACH type="full"]320566[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
