Thanks. We've named her the ugly duckling, but will be a swan when complete. Our target is a fun daily driver, but she'll look good.

love the brown patina. I'd apply a hefty amount of clear coat post-sanding. Good looking "swan" though!!

My new ride is a pretty stock frame off resto aside from a bit of extra chrome and slight lowering. Have a couple things in mind for it....

Thanks man, the tires are 255/45/20 and the running boards in the first picture are 8 inches to the ground, but the other two pictures it's more like 6 1/2. I raised the truck to give it more ground clearance
