The truck in the background has a tilt frontend.

I do not have many details on it. What I do know is he sets the spacing on the hood/fenders the way he likes it and welds it up.
Where the fender meets the cab he has felt so it is not metal on metal.
I believe he splits the fenders so that the part that wraps under the cab is bolted on all the time.

tilt front end, not tilt hood. tilt front end is hoodand fenders. not just the hood..
