That's awesome, I would love to have a job that allows me to have free time to build trucks like this on the side. You're a lucky man

Hi Keith,

Nice build.

Do you think those INNERS will clear on my truck with the body drop? I really like how they look.

Hey Keith,

The cross shafts on the PB control arms, you gonna paint or coat them with something or leave them natural? Just not sure how I want to do mine.

Thanks, Nate

BTW, awesome build

Re: Project "Tiffany"

Looks like a great start to another cool project. I really respect a guy smart enough to start with a "rust free" original truck. It makes the builds just go so much faster. Keep the pictures coming.
