Sweet, glad you like it! I won't be able to make it look amazing like you did though, the thought of bodywork makes me shudder...

I'd say you need a 5 speed in there, or at least a newer lockup trans.

Man, I do not miss snow at all after looking at those pics. Having to plug in the vehicle. Not for me! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" /> It was rough outside today, 75 something degrees.

I would love to put a 5 speed in. I just haven't found one. Not to many of these in Canada and even fewer manual trans ones. May look into a more complicated swap in a year or so.

Scored a set of lightforce 170's last night for the truck. Need some good lights for the front in a couple weeks as I'm driving to the great white north. So now I have these to light the way, along with my HID headlights.

I like that part. I tried to post it earlier, but I guess it didn't work. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Looks good.

I had to do the same thing to my fender but below the signal light.

[Linked Image]This is after I pulled it out....I'm stoked the headlight was not smashed. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

That's funny. It needs a band-aid.

My buddy has everyone who was helping with his truck sign the new dents.

I've got a nice dent from a log that decided to raise up and smack my truck while i was driving over it....That one got signed "Bobs 09". I've got a bunch...... Another time I ran over 1 of 2 gangsters tha beat up and robbed an old lady...I witness the attack so I bounced him off my quarter panel as he was fleeing the scene. I pulled the e-brake at about 30-40 MPH into him as he was running and laughing with a shopping cart full of her stuff. Then I got out and kicked both of their asses until one ran away. The one I ran over stuck around for some more abuse then he hobbled away. That dent got signed and dated too. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Ummmm - I think you're already in the Great White North. Take a closer look at the pics you posted, see all that white stuff everywhere?

Naaaahhhh... we get chinooks here in Calgary, and so the temp can go above freezing for days at a time during the winter. We're only at the 51st parallel.

Nope, he's going waaaaaay north... just north of the 62nd parallel, 400kms south of the Arctic Circle. THAT's the great white north! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />

That's why he left the roof intact above the passenger compartment! He also put in heated seats!
