So any changes I make to the body/interior and such are just to enhance what is already there or add features it didn't have before, but could be plausible and sold in a way they don't stick out. It's about layering details of custom and OEM and finishing things out so when you step back and look at it- it looks like you didn't do anything.

The best comment I received so far was a guy was shocked I found such a clean original truck and put a lift kit on it. At first pass he had no clue the amount of modification. This was what I wanted.
You nailed it & then some brother!

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
