Welcome! Very nice 54, love the two tone. That's a interesting exhaust you've got there also, reminds me as a semi.

Whatever you like about the Howard Racing. Beautiful truck either way. If it were mine the thing that I would change is the exhaust, I would end up burning myself on those...
What motor does it have and of course more pictures needed!

That's some fine body work. Handsome truck.

If you see a BB tonner or a F-5 that answers to 'Kansas', give Chris a wave. He's also in Cary, I believe.

I think I may have seen these trucks at a house in unincorporated Cary but never out at any cruise nights....

Clark, nice truck! You will get a lot of enjoyment out of that.
As for the doors, it's what makes you happy. I would probably remove it since it doesn't have any tie back to you. That being said, I wouldn't do anything to it until you have had the chance to put some miles on her and let her tell you what she needs.

If you do decide to do the doors be very certain of the paint color , and brand and if possible find the shop that did it as it appears to be a very nice job and will be difficult to duplicate . PS very nice
