I'm liking the stance, color, wheels, and the SHINY :) . The rear window is very nice. One question though - why the column and floor shifters?

Phone dump!

Its about 99% done. The windshield was too small for the frame. So I was thinking how to fill the gap. I used a headphones wire casing and split it with a razor blade in one side. Then wrapped the windshield with it and glued in place. Did the same with the back glass.

I used shrink tube and beeding wire to make the radiator hoses.

Thanks to this forum for all the great ideas I got.

Hope you all like it. Thanks for looking

The orange really POPS and makes the truck stand out.

[rmvw guy]

Beautiful! Nice paint work and I'll have to remember the great tip on the window glass. I also love the battery and rear shocks. That is a nice looking pickup!

I had the same problem with the windshield being to small, I built up the window frame on the cab with some epoxy to get it to fit better. I didnt like the exhaust tips that the kit had so I modified them with alum tubing on the end. I like your rear suspension setup.
