Got any suggestions? pull the front clip, pull motor, clean up and PAINT the engine bay, add a tunnel ram and 2x4's and PAINT the rest of the truck. I'd probably ditch the side pipes and exit the exhaust thru the bed in front of the rear wheels. [IMG]http://i66.tinypic.com/pui5j.jpg[/IMG] Coming soon!!!!

Chopped top looks mighty cool, Side pipes?? thats your choice, Ditch those wheels , maybe some Moon Disc. Paint? Black primer or satin black is getting old, try so other flat stand out color it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead
