Tons of people are going the "dropped" route and after market wheels/bumpers and sport mirrors. And they are beautiful! These trucks look awesome that way. But it isn't old school, and there are far fewer that are. I find the older I get, the more old school I am.

So many ways to go, for sure....Both of my 67-72's were trimmed out like this. Got the unchromed 67-70 bumper from a pal for RAT. It was paint it and move the signals behind the grille, or use the "pretty good" chrome bumper that was on the '71 front clip. So, I went with what I had last time...almost...
