Is your front suspension stock? Im wondering if I can do a 2.5 drop with mono springs on the front without a notch.

Very tastefully done. If you don't get an award for your truck I don't think anything should.

Skidoo, truck looks great, and you should do great at the show. At least you have three months before you get to go snowmobiling again. LOL. Awesome stance.

Beautiful looking truck. You should be very proud of your work. On a side note....The concrete it is sitting on looks very nice and clean as well !!

Well the show is over and I didn't bring any iron home. It did come down to a tie between mine and another rig for Beauty of the show and the tie breaker did not go to me. I lost to an old Studebaker pickup that looked real good from a distance, if you walked up to it and looked at it the interior was original and had nothing done to it but have the seat recovered. Inside the box was Rhinolined black. The truck was light blue. Rhino lining always yells out to me that stuff is being hidden. The hood never came up on the truck the whole show and if you looked under it nothing had been done to it underneath. I am OK with it. I am glad it won. What really makes me angry is my wife went shopping and did not come to the show. Had she came and voted I would be posting something entirely different.
