I like the multi color decals..and all the light upgrades.

I have the last small block, in a 1996 gmc.

black on black truck.

a little positive rake,

I keep tiny stickers from the past..

a Hurst for the short throw manual, and a 305 sticker, which is a trick for a genuine guru who spots it.

simple stuff.

the 305 is from a 1960s v6... the 305 v8 never got the checkered flag decal.

you may remember them from 396 fender emblems etc.

I did have to swap all lights, I am on an LED kick anyway..even my 1980s subaru is all LED.

I did get to keep the last of the old opaque parking lense up front...I found LED that finally worked.

I love the newer trucks appearance as much as my wimpy old one. My dad liked my old one enough to go get a brand new 2016.. little extra cab, black on black.

anyway.. lots of stuff people don't see. Welding to square it up better than factory. All 8 cab mounts, 3 of 8 bolts replaced. Energy suspensuon swapped.. tranny mount, sway bar. all poly bushings.

cross sills under the bed, tire crossmember, lamination (I want to bump up towing.. without a receiver)

These trucks twisted all around form day one.. the half tons. I noticed I fattened the bed up , making the rear end look like it was in the wheel wells too far.

I added 1.5 inches concetric spacer each side, wheels are still within the wells.

80 inches wide, outside to outside track width.

Another trick for gurus...

I spot it every time I look.. but I am the builder.

You can bake the 16 just like the 14/15's. Just takes some heat and patience. Permaseal is a pain to deal with though. Butyl is so much easier.

Ok thanks man, I saw a truck the other day and he added color to he's headlight I'm going to guess he did this.

i've done a few things...

i covered the white LEDs in the buttons with a blue gel (filament). i just got a bunch of blue surface mount LEDs so i'll be removing the covered white LEDs with actual blue ones in the coming weeks

i also got a dash inlay from usspeedo.com. this is probably one of my favourite mods i've done - just LOVE it. i also changed the colour a bunch of the LEDs on the dash to blue

and another fun one was making the bottom of my cup holder glow blue

i've got a bunch of other stuff planned for this summer, but it will mostly depend on just getting some spare time to do everything

i like the blue front over the red front.

i 'get' why you originally did the red front as it ties in with the other red, but that blue sure looks sharp!

I appreciate it Marv88... It really looks better in person. The lifted & off-roaders usually give me a hard time but it's my truck, my money, & my vision so I do what I want... Lol [emoji23] ModOn[emoji482]

I agree! Some just don't understand why we modify trucks or only appreciate their own style and that's fine but I appreciate unique mods/fine craftsmanship whether or not it is my personal style/preference. One thing for sure, with the amount of these "cookie cutter" trucks on the road we will not ever walk up to the wrong one in a parking lot clicking the remote button and wondering why it won't open! ?
