I have a top-secret surprise coming up for it that's gonna delay it a little bit, but with some luck it'll be COMPLETELY done by the middle of next year.

That is a sweet lookin ride. Looks sick shortened like that with the wheel set up. So you are having Zane build the for ya. Should be a good one he has proven his motor work.

So whats the deal with this thing Danny? You still building it or you gonna focus on your new 6.0?

Finishing my '04 and my '68 this year, then I'll get back on the Fordota. If I can find a complete motor to stick in it temporarily to run eveything I'll probably get the chassis finished this year. Then it's just saving $$$ for the motor and the tons of knick-knacky stuff.

Is the Fordota gettin the motor outta the pumpkin?

what ever happened with the pumpkin? I don't know any history on it other than the diesel power challenge video stuff.

Ended up putting a forged rod mini-me/38r combo back in it and sold it to a guy out of Maryland. He picked it up at last year's TS Event. He originally bought it as a tow vehicle for his sled-puller, but from what I understand he's gonna make it a sled-puller too now.

Sure wish Fordota would get done, but I am sure with the 6.0 that is going to be a blast. Danny can I ride if you bring it to HMP? I just want to hear it whine at start up.
