Re: 20" wheels, with drop,

most likely stock. I don't think the hood fits well with the truck..maybe i'm sick of looking at the peeling clear on it. I think we're going to prime it if it warms up!
thanks for the compliments!

Re: 20" wheels, with drop,

Truck looks good man. I agree with Gerald that last shot is cool with the lights. I also like the cowl hood, but I like the stocker too. I think it would look good either way.

I think you might kick yourself if you sell the cowl....

Re: 20" wheels, with drop,

thanks guys! got a pretty clean hood at the junk yard, with my luck we will find some mud in it when we strip it. we'll see. haha. I may keep the cowl as well, we'll see! Thanks for the compliments, I appreciate it, the truck is starting to move forwards now instead of staying the same!

Re: 20" wheels, with drop,

None of the hills trucks have the power mirrors. I was responding to pats comment that he wished he had the stock chrome mirrors on his truck.
I think I found a couple of pairs for myself though. Lol
Hopefully once the weather gets better here I can get something done. We've got 18inches of snow and supposed to get 6more tonight is gonna drop to -10degrees. Is hasn't been like this in 30 years in KS city.
So I'm glad to see somebody get work done on there trucks. It keeps me entertained!

Do the power mirros look just like the regular mirrors? I saw a suburban at the junkyard, and the mirrors had some wiring in it. hmmm

btw, I'm usually around that olathe area, over in new century
