Looks too nice, that stance is just right.
The visor really changes the look too

Hey folks thanks for the great compliments, I love it and handles better than a vette.....I managed to only put on 200 miles this past summer (too busy working and camping) to get the enjoyment outta her that she deserves.....

I am planning on selling it this spring, as things in my life have changes (for the good) and I simply wont have time for her (and I am anxious to start work on my 52).

The color is called "Go Mango" it is a Stock Dodge color used on their SRT Trucks. It has both metallic flake and pearl in it and the color changes with the sun light. It looks different every time you turn your head, must be all the compound curves.

I really enjoyed building her and look forward to both my new relationships with the new Fiance, and the '52......

Also want to thank the fine folks on this Forum for all the assistance, ideas, information and in depth discussions on a variety of topics, without which, this truck wouldn't have turned out as well as it did.

Nick
