Nice looking truck and the rear bumper actually matches the front when you start thinking about it.

Any ideas on who built it? Looking over the build would be interesting. Guessing it was expensive...

I admit to liking it a lot, BUT....(since it’s no one’s here) is it me or do the front wheels especially look too big? Also, seems a bit odd not seeing exterior stake pockets on the bed. Like it’s missing them - not that it “needs” to have them, just more true to the look of an old pickup truck.

PS: Rear bumper looks like it weighs 400lbs!
