    Nice imagination, with the hood thined I don't think it looks bulky on the profile shot. I think your grill, bumpers, and tail lights are nicely done! Very Custom!

    I like it too, nice work.

    Gotta agree though with all your cool body mods I'd have to thin the front bumper/grille myself to match your body.

    Again great work!

    I really like what you’re doing with the truck. I can’t say that I like the hood scoop though.

    no matter whether it is to peoples taste- this is truly what the old time (valley custom,etc.) guys did-you are carrying the torch both literally and figuratively PERFECTLY!!!!

    Wayyyy over my head custom wise but........I agree with the others, I LIKE the front grill its just too bulky or sump'thin. Looks like it needs to shrink back toward the body more. Hard to put into words but......looks suh-wheeeet!

    Makes me think I need to get back to work on mine. I did 4inches on the chop and 4 inches on the section then got sidetracked. Too many projects.

    If I liked everything about every car/truck I looked at this would be one boring world. Besides, if you look at stuff you don't like, it makes you think "how would I have done that" and that gets the creative juices flowing and, all of a sudden, you have new ideas or solutions for your project.

    I'm not a customs guy, but your truck is impressive. I like the t-bird scoop, looks good. Nice job.

    Great imagination and craftsmanship! I'm not digging the hood scoop but you do and that's all that matters!

    This truck is BAD ASS! :D The only thing I'd change is using an old shifter in that console instead of the modern one. Great vision and workmanship. Subscribed!

    That is really coming along. Way way ahead of my project on mine. I don't even want to think about the hours you have in that hood.
