    Nice!

    My fave body style of truck.

    The grille is? Cadillac? It's on the tip of my tongue, but I'm not getting there. It fits the shape of the front really well.

    Better picture of the back glass please? You extended it down ot the belt line, in line with the quarter windows. I want to do that to my 54 when I get there. How hard was it to do?

    Looking nice. On the next one you do, section the inner door shell and roll the outer skin at the bottom. Might save you a lot of work, at least on the doors.

    There will be a lot of head scratching once you get it all completed. I really like your integration of all the different chrome pieces. You only get one chance when cutting that up. It looks great!

    Have you got any detailed photos on how you did the hood?
     
  23. It’s one hell of a difference and looks way WAY MORE BETTER cut and the proportions brought into line.

    Very nice work!
     
  27. Great looking custom LUV the Caddy grill..

    Hate to say it tho… Ditch the bumper
     
  28. Let me rephrase this... The rear looks good but me thinks the front needs a diet looks to bulky after the thinning you did on the rest of the truck..

    my 2.5 cents worth anyways

    Great work, and I like what you are doing. It is damn hard to get a perspective of all of the work without something else in the picture. How's about taking a picture with someone standing next to it. I think that will show just how much you have done and it's effect.
