    Some progress pics of the truck...

    Just kind of a rundown..

    Picked up a front clip from a guy in Arkansas...got the fenders, hood, bumper, grille, headlights, turn signals, and I think that's it. Wound up using the passengers side fender since mine was tweaked a little. Lines up perfect and the color match is perfect. Also used the bumper (shown) and the grille (shown). The cowl hood was a purchase from eBay, the lights and signals were a purchase from Ebay, so all that's left, and that's in desperate need of attention is the grille (a previous owner painted it with roofing tar I think) (jk) and still trying to figure out what i want to do with the bumper. Still leaning toward an SS cover but I'm down to my last few hundred. Hopefully TYLER will Photoshop the bumper and a Tahoe grille on this so I can get a visual. Virgil recommended Lorenzo's Body Shop (between Mesquite and Dallas, if anyone local is needing good work at a good price) and he did a really nice job on the hood (7 coats of base and 3 coats of clear) and he also smoked my tails and third brake light but the pics don't show them very well (really need to darken my back window more now). Anyway, here are the pictures (try to ignore the grille and bumper):

    I'm undecided on the lights. The halo/angel-eyes look is unique. Are the lights black behind the lense? I like the black out behind the lense.

    Yeah the backs are black. Definitely a different look.

    I really think with a nice grille and something different bumper wise will bring it all together. That grille makes it look like poo.
