1954 Ford C-600 COE truck

Remember the old Okie Cokie ?

That's what it been like the past few weekends with the new engine, in and out shake it all about,




Probably 30 odd times in and out, what with making new mounts, cross members, Distributor oil pump drive issues etc etc

but it does sound good , with the pretty high compression and no exhaust



It does get quieter with the flow master boxes on though. and will exit in front of the back wheels in the arches with a nice slash cut end with some HASBO cut outs coming out under the cab to









I did take the Datsun to a Porsche OutLaw night last week to




This out dude said my 240z was RaD,

Really nice bloke with a load of time to talk cars and stuff with people to, when I told him I had a few old Porsche's before the Z he wanted to know how I thought they compared and was genuinely interested,





It didn't make The Weekender this year again, but I have been caring for my mum for the past year or so while trying to work and build the truck, that's why its been a it slow with the updates and 2 months ago I lost her and I've been a bit lost ever since,

But Getting the engine in and going has given me a bit of a boost and hopefully I will get it out this summer

Now to get the prop shaft off and modified to fit , needs another 7" and reinvent the steering, it does look like the rack will fit between the new braces and with a bit off the steering column will meet up in the right place.

Motor looks great sat in the truck, so much room for activities!

Really sorry to hear the news, some summer cruising would be good for the soul.

Mr Walker is a cool dude, I bumped into him in the Dr Martins store in New York a few years back haha nice genuine bloke.

Looking forward to seeing some shots of the COE rolling down the road!

I was at the event with Magnus, some real cool stuff there

Condolences ...
