Made , hopefully my last, orders yesterday for the remaining parts needed from LMC and Brothers Truck parts.
Ordered some original style mirrors, kinda going with the resto rod theme, of course they are chrome. Tail lights are polished stainless, front and rear bumpers are chrome, hidden tail gate latches with no chains......all in all it should come out pretty good.
When I started this project the Torq Thrust wheels were kinda in, but now I am thinking they are kinda out. It has 18 x 9 on the front and 20 x 10 on the back. It gives it the rake I was looking for but maybe in the future I may go with one consistent size. Something I can look at in the future.
