Re: Project Retrospect

If they're running drums in the rear, what are they doing for e-Brake cables?

Re: Project Retrospect

Sir, you have created another masterpiece of automotive artwork. My opinion is that Chip needs to move over to the same side as Boyd, and let you take charge.

Re: Project Retrospect

I dig the unibody. Actually I was going to start a thread asking if anyone had done that since it was a mod I was thinking about.

I was wondering the same thing. It looks like the hood/cowl/fenders are one piece, I think the whole thing flips forward.

That truck looks KILLER!!!!!!

It truely is a piece of art. That's one truck I'd actually be afraid to drive!

Re: Project Retrospect

its hard to see, but if you look at the cowl in the corner you will see the hood break. I runs along the top edge of the "old" hood.
