Are you planning on running the Silverado lower trim panels on the door or a derivative thereof? A leather covered one with a polished/chrome strip at the top or are you leaving the bottom of the door naked?

We have discussed that but I’m not 100% sure yet...as for now it’s staying naked. I just like simplicity of it, not to over done

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

WOW!!! This has to be one of, if not, the best/most thorough builds on this site! Breathtaking work you have done. A piece of art.

I'm gonna go throw rocks at my truck. Hahaha.

I had no idea what I was in for when I read your first post about hauling it off to the shop. What a ride, and what an amazing truck. Thank you for keeping us up on it.

Re: off it goes
Finally it’s on wheels! I really like your truck it’s come along way and loved it when you first bought it. The fact that it looks factory until you look inside is the best part. I’m not generally a fan of ultra low trucks but this is my favourite by far, well done sir well done.

Re: off it goes
looks like @airslamit just bought a poor copy of your truck. TBH, it looks like a generic version of a name brand when compared to your work.

So killer! Looks amazing man. What are the paint color codes? Still Santa Fe Tan? (sorry, nearly color blind so hard to tell on the computer)

Re: off it goes
Truck is absolutely amazing! Crazy how the general concept is unchanged from before the build, but this is definitely a completely different truck! Awesome work!

I'd love to hear and see this thing rolling a bit!

Kinda looks like you just need to put the center caps on it and it’s done. The truck looks flawless.

Thanks, lol... center caps will be last. Have to test drive it, make some air ride adjustments, charge the air conditioning system...a few other small things and give it a once over after the test
