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.

Porterbuilt "FRONT DROPMEMBER", arms, Sway

Nates "New Hoodhinges"

Porterbuilt Crossmembers (two driveshafts)

Rear: Custom Porterbuilt "DROPMEMBER" (Weld IN)

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)

Wheels: Still Debating It will be a 20 front 22 rear (Like to hear imput)

Paint: Will Stay with all moldings and Trim

Motor/Trans: Factory numbers matching 350 with numbers matching tranny.

Should turn out Good. I hope everybody will enjoy seeing Nathan at Porterbuilt work his magic on this one.
