That's an awesome look all around, something about some simple striping over a stockish lookin paintjob just works.

Mine...

There is a '72 short stepper that is black with flames and Halibrand Sprints that has been out there forever. I remember seeing it in ads (maybe Halibrand?) in street rod magazines back in the late 80's/early 90's. Great looking truck. Anyone have pics of it?

Makes me wish my truck wasn't 2 toned with the wrong hood, I'd do something similar. Maybe in the far off future if I ever get froggy enough to paint it it'll happen. What size tires are you runnin'? My truck needs new shoes and that's similar to the stance i'd like.
