    Just found your build thread. Very cool. Gives me some ideas for our 51', when it's turn comes. I really like what you've done with the quarter windows, b pillars, and the catwalk. Keep us posted.

I just recently got another 54,so I have been searching all the threads! Keep the updates coming (when ya can) and again great job! Iam now almost convinced not to run bags on mine. Hell I dont have em on the truck and its 4" off the ground so........

    Bags are for Groceries. Dont need them, just pay attention when you drive.

    I was going to ask about the drip rails..It's a pep peeve of mine...don't like them removed,your eye seems to go to the top rear of the door and to me it looks unfinished..jmo...your ride is lookin super..keep taking the pics..can ya buy drip rails..don't know how hard they would be to put in..just a thought..when ya look at the side view of your car,you can see the line of the top of the door and it just stops dead..the drip rail continues the line..again just my thinking

    Just saw the pics outside. It's funny how a guy gets attached to builds that he didn't have anything to do with. Keep up the good work. I can't wait to get a place to work on my 54.
