Damn Jim, you sure do love sleepers! What is that? Did you ever sell your truck?

Where did you find this new project? That thing looks really good! Nothing like a sub 10 second grocery getter. What ever happened with the Pinks project car?
Looks good, subscribing for the progress pics!

You can sleep in the back of that sleeper. That would be a nice ride to just cruise in and **** people off with.

Great project, looking forward to following the progress. 408 w/ twin turbos and 4L80E - you're not sourceing parts from the truck are you?
