Re: "the graduate"

Your truck is looking great. How much O.E. metal did you use or did you use new after market panels?

Re: "the graduate"

I wish I had the ability to fab up my own inners from sheet metal, but I don't so I have a set of Slosh Tubz waiting to go in. Can't wait to see what you come up with.
