So nice, like the interior. Got any more pics? I am thinking about doing something similar.

Nice truck! Cool details. Raised but functional bed. Wheel choice ties in well to the overall style. In the cab, the back panel with subs and amp mimics the stitching rows in the seat. That's killer! Keep us up to date if you can. Thanks, LT7A

Got a few updates on Myrtle, finally took her to a show and came in second
at Scrapin the coast in my class and keep your eyes on your newstands in the near future.
She got a lil photo shoot done by one of the best in the business. I also finally installed my clear headlights and LED low beam bulbs
