WOW!!! Talk about a transformation!!!

Sorry about the camera pics, Plus my monitor is nearly as old as me and is the pits, so I have no real idea what you are seeing. Maybe they will work.

I sold this truck to a guy about a year or so ago to a local guy. It was a very nice custom deluxe c-20 BB highlander.

Re: WOW!!! Talk about a transformation!!!

I was in his neck of the woods today so I thought I would go by and check out his truck. This is what I saw. It is a SWB, c-20, 502, bucket seats and more. I think he did a pretty good job and to me the truck sits awesome. If you just glance at it you would swear it was a 4x4.……….Jason

Re: WOW!!! Talk about a transformation!!!

The biggest improvement making it a SWB....I would had gone with a different choice in wheels maybe some Alcoas with mickey thompson tires...

Get rid of those rims and the nerf bars and you have a winner there.

Re: WOW!!! Talk about a transformation!!!

minus the wheels/tires, nerf bars and bed rails, he did some nice work. However, I think I would like it even more if it was still LWB...

Still, a very nice ride.

HERE HERE, as long as he likes it thats all that really matters, if we kept em all stock or slammed all of em it would be kinda boring too, me thinks! My Granny always said the "if ya cant say nuthin nice".....thing too.
