Congratulations Jake!!!! That's a beautiful truck! If you get tired of it give me a call, I have a Honda that you would probably like better and we won't tell your dad.

Thanks to everyone for all the kind words, I read each and everyone! I do plan on cleaning it up and polishing the wheels. I will start a build thread and we are going to upgrade to HEI, add a power booster over the holidays and maybe a 700r in 2013
