Some after pics...

I should have started a buil thread way long ago. I have so many pics I could have shared. This about a year and a half ago when we found it left for dead and had to have it back.

There has been a ton of work done since this point.

This was after it was decided that it was roadworthy enough to take it on a hunting trip. It had to have some new tires so thats when we bought the hummer tires. Still no lift at this point.

Try not to look at the gap in the hood

He thought he would be a "smartass" about the hood gap.

Nice work on the truck so far.

Thanks. The rims are Ultra's but I'm not sure what model. They are 16.5x9.75 but i think they made them in all sorts of sizes. These are chromed over aluminum. They look good though with 40'' tires on them.

saw the hood and then read the last line. i'm a funny ****, i know.

i've heard of people spacing the hood in back to get more air flow, assumed that was
what you were doing.

the hummer tires do look good but nothing beats a treadwidth large enough to get a VW stuck in it.

Could you be a bit more descriptive than "Ultra's"? I tried typing in Ultra rims on google and came up with squat. I'd love to get my hands on a pair of rims like that.
