I saw that truck on the magazine rack a couple weeks ago, It's absolutely beautiful! That truck single-handedly changed my mind on what direction I want to go with my restoration. I thought I was going with a 67-68 front end and shave everything, now I think I'm gonna go with the stock 71-72 look with biggies and bags. The color and wheels are perfect too, I can't quit drooling over that truck.

I am with you too actually, sort of. I like it either way. Since it has air bags he could throw on a stock set of rims and raise it up to stock height and it would look just as clean.

Hell ya, of course, but I'd like it better if it had been left alone It would be boring if we all had the same tastes, but you have to admit almost every truck featured in the mags is really lowered and running on 18's or bigger, not my thing, that's all.

Here is a link to another nicely modified truck.
The price is high but if I built it I would probably ask the same.

I lean more to the original looks myself
