NZSracing's 1978 F150 Super Stock build.

Post by Joxracing »

Well, its time for a new truck.

Our previous Stock Truck ( http://www.gofastbroncos.com/forum/view ... 38&start=0 )
has served us well, and its time to start saving pennies and move up to the wild Class 8 (Super Stock Truck) of the MORR body.

We bought another rusty 78, this time a shortbox variety, and tore it down to just frame rails, cleaned up the rust and laid some chassis saver down. We managed to get one outrigger bent up for the cage, when we carried the project out and started prepping the #505 for the one race we ran this year.

This weekend the frame will be brought back into the shop where we'll hopefully start the chassis work again. This class is relatively expensive, so this project is either gonna be done for the 2015 season, move extremely slow, or never finished at all. You'll just have to stay tuned.

The specs of the truck will be:
Full cage
Hopefully fiberglass, with the 78 steel cab
3" shocks all the way around
Our 351w with a head change to a GT40 head, and possibly a cam change
Fixed yoke C4, manny valve body, etc.

Hopefully the #505 will be raced by a team member next year, or it might be raced the full season if this truck isnt finished, who knows.

You guys can keep up with us on facebook & instagram with the new team name, NineZeroSixRacing.

Pics will come this weekend, but here's some shots of the #505 from Bark River this summer. We ended up taking a 3rd and a 4th after some mechanical difficulties on saturday (full 3rd member swap, ring gear through the housing at the finish line)
