That is a little sweetheart! I wish my truck looked that good. Very clean and great patina.

AFAIK, Canadian pickups and trucks were black fendered, but was the grille "squared off" with the black as well? Or is that a personal touch by the owner?

Notice how it's trying to be a REAL truck? Check out the bed.

Deep down inside, all monkey faces want to be 51/52s.

Nice truck

Good lookin' truck; Havi: confirm fenders were black but I think the upper portion of the grill was also black. I opted for leaving the upper panel of grill body color as well.

I lLike the stance and would be curious to know what front suspension he's using.

F1 - any luck finding an local orthodontist for your "buck toothed baby" ? Ray, any updated pics on your truck ?

Now that you mention it, (and it’s a secret), but yes, a consultation has been scheduled for dental surgery.

Naw, she’s still upside down backwards, I think every time a PO needed a hole through the firewall he drilled a new one, feels like I’m patching a 100.
