Thats a fantastic looking truck! Almost a spitting image of what I imagined mine to turn out as (a year or two or three from now)!! Only difference are wheels and mines a 54!

I like how you did your turn signals too (I've never seen those hole lights as arange turn signals)

Sweet ride. Wish I had half your skill and motivation.


I can explain it to you, I can't understand it for you.

Hey! Don't be harsh. He just finished a WHOLE lot of work to bring this one back. Let him be done...

Awesome! I like the way you left it with character. I have owned my the same time frame and spent more time with the kids than with the truck.
