Amazing and Beautiful Job!

In my neck of the woods you could charge people by the minute to just drink beer and stare at your truck.

I cut up an old fender skirt for the donor sheet metal that i marked with some stencils i made, used a die grinder then rounded them with a grinder and a flap disc. 4" speakers work just right since pass side vent is smaller.

Everything looks great!
What do you think of painting the front of the radiator black to better show off the grill?
