This is an
artist's (me!) conception
of the
Didgey Truck. |
|
This will be
the heart of
the Didgey Truck. |
 |
It's a
1968 460 cid with
Edelbrock
Performer 460
intake & Holley 4V
C6 auto trans
with shift kit and
COBRA lettered
dress up items. |
|
This is Gene Tidwell
hard at work installing
a Volare torsion bar
suspension under
the Didgey Truck.
Gene also set up
the chassis with
motor mounts for
the 460 engine and
a crossmember for
the C6 transmission. |

This is the
Didgey Truck's
disc brake
rear end. It's
a 1957 F-100 housing
that has been
shortened one inch.
I used two left axles from
a MK V disc brake
rear end and |
 |
re-drilled them with
a 5x4-1/2 inch
bolt pattern.
I will use a
set of vintage
American Racing
Torq Thrust wheels
with B.F.Goodrich
Radial T/A tires. |

What does a Volare
suspension do for an
F-100? It puts
the font end
IN THE WEEDS! |
