Almost forgot
I almost forgot. The truck already has the drip rail shaved, which I always wanted to do but didn't have the nerve. I'm also going with 1 piece windows from Vintage Glass in Lawrenceville GA. They make a jam up kit. It still used the small aluminum triangle, but my plans are to install billet motorcycle mirrors on them and polish them so that it looks like they are just mirrors. I ordered the glass all 20% tinted so I don't have to worry about tinting the windows.

No more dragtruck for me. I'm building a new ride though. It's a '71 fleetside, 400 sbc, 700R4. Working on it now, finally. Soon to have Edelbrock Pro Flo EFI, Vintage Air, 1 piece windows, buddy buckets, etc.
