How to Read this Blog

When I started this blog, I could not figure out, within the given parameters, how to get it to read logically. So it ended up with the freshest post on the top of the page with the top of the post being the beginning of the post. When you get to the end of the post, you will find the beginning of the previous post. A bit awkward, but ...it is what it is. (right David?)

Also, feel free to leave comments. I engaged the annoying "real person verification thingy" because some dork put an add to his product on my blog and disguised it as a comment. He probably works on wall street.

Please forgive me.

If you go back to the original post on this blog, you will see the truck with the Super Bee decal and stripe. When I originally built this truck with the 440, I tried to stick with a 1969 Super Bee theme. The color was a correct Mopar color for the Coronet Super Bee. The gas caps were from the muscle car era. And the stripe is the classic Super Bee touch. At that time, I painted the Dodge v-8 blue 440 to a nice Hemi orange. For over a decade, we have simply called this truck the "Super Bee." So holding to the tradition, I nixed the Dodge Cummins Black and the Cummins correct baby poop tan colors and went with the Hemi orange.
Her is the engin with frash paint. I ran out of orange before I got to the oil pan.
I love the way the contrasting colors make the orange pop. I went with black on the oil pan. The chances of having this engine leak proof are slim so I thought black would be fine for the pan.
Right side.
Right again.
Top.
Yep.
