those rims are nice, but you have to be about a foot away for them to look nice beause of the detail. from far away they dont look so good. i wouldnt have bought them. plus colorado customs wheels are insanely expensive. i cant wait for him to drive it and smoke the hell out of those tires. i hope he does that. after all he has a 572 rattlin under the hood. what kinda tranny is he runnin/

THe truck does look great. They paid about 500.00 each for the NOS fenders. I sure the motor was well over 10,000.00. Iwill have to watch that episode. I have been waiting for the final show for Cooperhead.

Stacy stated that the only original part used was the cab. All other parts were by Goodmark. Was he wrong?

The new shows are coming around the first of the year. I know someone that knows him very well and he says that his schedule is unbelieveable. He said it would make your head spin. The truck has a complete repo bed, nos fenders,used original doors,used grille, repo inner fenders and a original cab.

Didn't he use Early Classic front fenders, bedsides, doors, and grill trim, instead of used parts?
