Beautiful trucks (both of them) and I'd be interested to see the project if it goes up for sale. My only disappointment is you had to get that drop by c-notching your square body, I was hoping there was another way...

I also love the gray - I'm not used to seeing those trucks in gray; you nailed it, great job.

Wow, that's good to hear... I don't want to cut my frame but I love your stance, and the wheels are my favorite aftermarket ones. I don't haul gear so I'm not sure that 2.5" clearance would be an issue. Great looking vehicle... may have to check this setup out!

Absolutely amazing! Both trucks look fantastic! I'd keep the 68. Its always nice to change up the scenery every once in a while. Drive em both. Keep up the great work! It inspires me to get working on mine.

Absolutely sick looking. I love that dark gray color on these trucks. Makes me want to paint mine even more now. Great job. The stance is perfect.

Love what you did to the truck. Have you ever find the tailgate that was taken off of it?

not bad for $35.00 yes 35! at an estate sale. ( which is the best place to find oem stuff like this ) and yes guys i drilled 2 holes in it to hang it on the wall but its very fixable. no dings, dents, or gouges and the chrome is perfect and lines up great!

not a bad deal man all you need now is the skinny tailgate band it would look good on that silver if you plan painting it that color.

Do not worry about the two holes you put in the tail gate. That is an easy fix. Bubble Gum. Redneck fix that is.
