looking good...not to sure about the rims they look stock and with a truck that isnt quite stock they might look funny...but if you like it that is all that matters...looks like fun too!

sorry gang I was off on another project and just got back to this one, the grill came from LMC it took no time to put on and even came with plugs for the end of the bars, only time will tell if the chrome is of quality, though it looked good. The wheels are stock just had to slow up the hemorrhaging of cash and that can be taken care of later. thanks for the looks. JNT

lowering is good, though I do intend to put sway bars on I have a Lincoln that I think I can steal from and place it on the truck. I have a two inch rack the back is up as if original but next to a stocker you really notice it is lowered. JNT

well it has had some time and foul weather and I can say with absolute confidence that I will never spend the money for any thing chromed and from LMC. the grill insert was iffy when installed, but now with only a few months on it its not of good enough quality,go for the better billet grills.

I agree on quality from lmc; I restore my 65 and the door gasket seem poor, but its all about the mighty $$$, I can only purchase what I can afford.
Your truck looks good and thanks for the update.
