Re: Gorgeous bronze shortstep going thru Mecum tonight

I'm not usually a fan of custom interiors as they are usually done to specifically suit the tastes of the owner, but I really like this one! Has kind of a classy modern cowboy thing going on and it works really well with the paint color. Looks like they might have gotten some inspiration from the ford king ranch trucks.

Re: Gorgeous bronze shortstep going thru Mecum tonight

Nice, but I agree with previous posts. Had it been me I would have left the bumpers on.
But $32,000 hmmmm.... I can think of quite a feve other things I would do first if I had that kind of "buy a toy" budget:-)

Re: Gorgeous bronze shortstep going thru Mecum tonight

With all of the custom work done to the truck, they should have gotten rid of the cab light.
