The tour cars used to be huge out here back then but they have died out. We mainly focus on modifieds, and lately street stocks because thats all that really runs out here now. I plan on leaving it a GMC just because it is not as common as others I see on the road, and I like the 4 headlight look. I think I will take off the chrome trim ring that goes around the grill on the hood and fenders, and get the grill and light buckets chromed. I want it to be a simple, clean, efficent truck that has a little get up and go when need be, but not look like I went crazy in the autopart store accessory isle.
That's him. Yea I thought about keeping my truck a GMC just cause it was so solid and I had everything there but I always thought those grills kinda made the truck look like a dodge. There's no doubt tho, when they are done right they can turn out really sweet. I just sent you the email on those headlight bezels, let me know what you think.
