Wow...just wow...beautiful job.

I had my doubts when you started the project, as your truck was such a looker...but that really turned out great!

It handles very well, but i still need some more top heavy sway control ( big wig helwig sway bar ) :shock:

still no stripe.......after i get it wet sanded and buffed i will get serous about the stripe. :lol:

got 14.1-13.1 mpg in some pretty steep mountains.

very happy with the old girl, still need more trans fluid cooling problems but nothing a little creative driving
can't overcome.

Definitely a truck to be proud of.

Is it just me or does the truck paint match the camper?
