Sweet truck... I'm still not big on the late model beds but, that is one sweet truck. Oh btw it's a 68' from what the article says anyway.

I know it's just a matter of personal taste, but you can't improve upon the classic lines of the original sheet metal of these trucks...

where's the rear wing and the airdam kit...???

I can do everything but the A/C vents - looks too much like the dreaded blue oval! I'd liket to see a better pic of the console. Very cool truck!

Sweet truck. But I agree. Why put so much money in a project and not have the wheelwells look the same? What's another $700-1,000 for a bed on a custom rig like that? Also, the dash makes the interior look older to me. Just my opinion.

agreed

I have to agree with you guys on the dash. Totally eliminating
the stock dash is like taking this trucks identity away. Almost comparable to putting a different grill on the truck.
But it is a sharp looking pick-up.
