Truck looks awesome! I like the stance pretty good. I'm looking to do a 3/4 drop on my long bed. I kinda like the raked look. Quick question though, what's up with the one mirror?

I think it looks really good! I'm tempted to switch to a 68 front myself!

HuggerCST · 09-28-2009, 10:11 AM

I love it!

My next project is Glock's 68, so yours is a great inspiration. Love the color too.

Thanks for checking out my build grunt!!!...The interior shot is post #155 from the driver side....I put new carpet in it and just reused the seat and door panels.....I'll save up my $$$ at some point and probably do saddle interior...with buckets (gotta find some first).....but that'll be awhile!!!

The tilt I put in it was from a 72 part truck...the one that was in it was from....I don't know??....it had the key in the column and the PO saw-all the brake ssembly bracket to get it to fit?!?!?!....you need the old one??

By the way....that was awesome that you were able to help the guy find his stolen truck!!!....:thumb:

No, I was just curious about the column. It looked like it came out of a buick car.

Yeah, I'm going to meet up with Joe tomorrow and take some pics with him and his truck. I'm just glad it worked out ok for him.
