Change to pipes to come out the sides , but angle them up and pointing out towards the ground, that way, U want see them as much! Get some Stock 15X8's! Get rid of the stickers! I like this truck! and this is a immediate, cheap fix. Nice truck, whatever U decide to do.

here are a couple of mine and my brothers trucks, we reside in southern Wisconsin, im posting both of them cause he is currently stationed in Ft.Lewis Washington. hes chomping at the bit to get his truck done. his truck is the blue one. its a 76, hes the third owner, our dad was the second. its a 350/350 has like 70,000 orig. miles. it has the original hawaii blue two tone paint, less the punisher skull he painted on the hood, when he was bored before he left lol. the wheels are very old hurricanes, they were on the truck when my dad bought it from the original owners wife after he died decades ago. he plans to go back to original paint with the exception of the roof, he wants to paint the darker of the two blues instead of the lighter. and put a pretty low static drop on it.

the other truck is my 86, bought it rust free(big deal in WI) for $250 with a "blown head gasket" turned out to be a very badly hatched motor. it was a 305/700r4, now a 350/700r5 with a stage 2 shift kit. i plan to bag it with a circular notch for drivability, and to be able to tow a car trailer still. i am swithing over to square fenders, hood, and trim. and thinking about painting it spring green and white, we are both looking at doing a 6.0/t-56 transplants and running 18" wheels for good rim to tire ratio.

sorry for the novel but i/we are pretty new here and wanted to give you guys some back ground.
