Wow! Bunch of fab work on that truck.
I like it, but I would hate to try parking that thing at Wal-Mart. What will the paint color be when it is all finished?

Dan: That looks great. I particularly like the suicide doors. I would like to see a closer shot of how what was done? I'll check your gallery. No trips to Sonic, you'd block the drive.

Looks outstanding!
I really seeing other people's ideas come to life. I like all the "custom" touches. The more you look, the more you see.
Congrats.

I like it too, but it would have to be in the back of the bed...I can't imagine crawling up there to drag it out. Maybe he has an "ejection" system that would pitch it back to you? LOL? LOL
