Re: New guy from Missouri
Mostly stock body with subtle tweaks, updated chassis and drivetrain, typical cruiser I guess you could say. I want to get this one built so my family and I can enjoy it, but I want to get another one to really test my metal working skills to build a fully modified show truck

Re: New guy from Missouri
Ok, here are some pics from when we towed it home from Laramie Wyoming. The headlights have been frenched and the hood smothed and welded together. It is on a 76 1/2 ton frame that has been shortened, c-notched and boxed in the rear. I will upload some more later.
