Very nice! I've a a few myslf and I really like the OEM look to make people really stare trying to figure out if it's OEM or custom....to me that's the trick to building a nice vehicle.

Nice....looks a lot like a 55, which is a very nice grill year.

thats sweet.. i have a 55 that i want to get cleaned up.. i want the center pieces to be welded together cleanly instead of just two metal pieces..
I also have the custom cab so it had the two inserts , but i dont like them and want the holes to be welded shut.. something for the future

I like it, looks like a modified 56 grill, where the lights tricky?

Its actually a 53 grill, The lights did take a little time I think it will be worth it.

I really like the look of a 55 grill, so I just kinda worked that direction , and I agree a 55 gril should be smoothed, all seams and holes

Its going to be paint, Rigth now I'm planning on the truck being a very dark charcol metalic with some accent of a deep bronze or gold metalic.Not sure of what parts will be the bronze, But I have a lot of time to figure that out.
Thanks everyone for your input....
Mike
