I've always loved the 454SS's, there's alot of potential there. Ironic how that's the same truck that you admired as a kid.

good starting point for a project. i would have to change some things on it if it were mine like the ground effects, wheels, the billet front end, etc but thats why i have my own i guess. keep us updated on it. i am going to start a frame-off rebuild on mine soon with a 496

To answer a few questions. Yes its bagged. Full firestone airbags. I haven't played with them yet, the truck sat for a few months and I want to make sure I don't have to oil any compressor or drain any tanks first. My buddy is big into air bag systems is going to check the whole system out for me.

I got a SICK deal on the truck. I don't talk numbers, but I got it for well well under what you find them for.

Oh the wheels are going. Thinking some draglites or powder coated black craigers. Thinking some 335s in the rear.

The front billet is staying, just a few mock ups. Updated headlights and HIDs. The fogs will also be true HIDs. Re-doing the tint to 5%.

Oh I dunno if I added this or not. Its got the eddlebrock intake, multiport injection kit, small cam, headers, and looks like different heads.

Researching further on various forums, it should be putting out in the 350 area... Heads are a big thing on those motors.
