Re: Here we go!!!

Posted via Mobile Device So back to the story... At this point I had just finished up the work on the rad support , so on with the hood to see how things line up. I will also gather up some pics of the rad support mods & repairs.

Re: Here we go!!!

I have seen pics of trucks that were built to look like this, just can't remember where, or what to call them to look up on google images.
