labluver, about the only thing useable was the frame and doghouse. The cab was marginal. After 4 years, lots of part scrounging and a dollar or two thats what I ended up with.. I LOVE IT LOL

As far as pinstripping nah, never have liked it but some subtle flames are on the way. Im working on the hood now. Im welding the top halves together to make a solid hood. Side pieces will be mounted solidly. Havent decided whether to have the hood open sideways or reverse. Still mulling it over.

As far as the regulator I would recommend a gauge to be able to set your pressure. I think I paid around $75 for my regulator. My brother used a $20 generic adjustable regulator from Checker Auto and I think the highest setting is 5 lbs. And it was dead on at 5 lbs.
