Man that is really nice. The only thing that would make it better is to change is the name on the title...

Re: my 79 driver
Very Nice!
The wheels make the stock trim pop. I like the clean simple look of it.

Re: my 79 driver
 to the board!!That is one fine looking truck you have there. I was wondering what mine would look like with smoothies on it. My only suggestion is getting a set of taillight and turn signal lenses for it. They only cost me around $40 off of Ebay and looked so much better than my faded originals.
