thought it was. You deffinatly have spent some major time on it, I never imagined that truck could look like that.

I like the front bumper, how much was it?

 

[Howling]

I can't see the pics.

 

[ETH/DEE]

Awesome! These are definitely motivation to get me going on my 1500 build.

294.00 from andys auto sport....really not a bad price. you do have to fab up a couple mounting tabs. comes in fairly good shape. i know my painter was impressed with it.

i appreciate the kind words guys, i think at times i enjoy the work more than the finished product. this site has cost me tons of $$$$, taken me through several trucks and ended up with this bucket!:Cheer:
