1979 Ruby Red D-100 Adventurer 408 Tri-power
I bought this new and drove it 100,000 mi before turning it into my never ending project. It was originally two tone brown with tan bench seat interior and 318-2 , 727 auto drive train. It is now a LA block stroker 408 tri-power with 518 overdrive trans and narrowed 8 3/4 rear 4:11 gears. The latest change this past winter was to upgrade the interior for the third time. Finally got around to building the console and dash panel that I've wanted for a long time.

Very nice truck

Dang that's nice. It's especially cool to see a fleetside instead of a stepside.

Where did you find the door panel/cards? I am in search for a set, and those are nice!

Great, yes that answered my question perfectly. I am about a year from starting on my truck, I am just in the process of gathering information. As most know. Finding parts for these babies can be difficult at time.
Thank you |

So how hard was the tri power to tune? Back when I could have gotten the carbs for a song I thought about them for my 440 but my carb guy at the time talked me out of it.
