I would not have done 1/2 the things I did if it wasn't for you and this dam web site. Sleepless nights with my head spinning with ideas. Thanks for all the comments and ideas guys. I hope some of the things I've done will save some sleepness nights for others! Door handles are from a mitsubisti mirage

Damn that looks good. Great job man I especially like the grille treatment. Looks great man.

Kabwe · 11-18-2010, 12:55 PM

Man I don't know why there are not more comments on this but once again the truck looks great. The hood, door handles, and the panel fitment is really nice.

ChuckDriver · 11-18-2010, 02:13 PM

Yep, it looks AMAZING!!!

Spackle100 · 11-18-2010, 02:44 PM

Yeah, this thing is awesome. I really like the colors, they bring out the lines nicely.

Tri5Nerd · 11-18-2010, 02:55 PM

I don't like it!

I love it! Wow, it looks great. This is why I come to this site more than any other sites. The work you guys do on these old pieces of crap to bring them back to life is amazing. Again I love it, I don't think the pictures justice to the truck.

What size wheels and tires are you running?
Can you post a pict from the back so I can see how the wheels are tucked?
