Its all your fault too. I've been staring at tootsie roll waiting for that thing to get done for the past eight months debating whether or not to cut this one up.

Sheetmetal bed work by Nate. with wood bed.

ACCUAIR Dual Compressor set up with Key FOB remote

BIG Brakes: (leaning toward smooth rotors to maintain OEM style look)
