Body General Information
(click for larger image)

All the moldings on this truck have been removed to clean up the lines. The front bumper was also shaved. Cleaning up the lines on this truck was the main goal of replacing and shaving moldings. The back glass (The slider) was removed due to the extra lines in the glass where the slider was at, it was replaced with a flat glass.

The front side markers were also painted. This was very simple and really helped the look of the truck. The turning signals still work in the front of the truck of course.


Hood

The hood was replaced with an aftermarket cowl induction. Its not an actual functioning Cowl hood however! The Whipple Supercharger has no need for the induction features of the hood. I purchased this hood second hand and am not sure who the manufacturer is. I have many people ask about this. Its a real nice hood,  finished on the bottom as well.


Custom Brake light added above Cab.

A third tail light was added above the cab. This Light is from the fin of a Honda, really bright and anyone behind the truck is for sure aware the trucks brake is being applied. It was frenched in and was a real pain in the ass too. I wouldnt recommend trying this unless you simply like pain.


Rear Roll Pan.

A Metal roll pan was added to the rear after the stock bumber was removed. Custom tail lights were frenched into the roll pan. The lenses were then cut to fit.

Behind each lens sits a rack of four bulbs (Total of eight bulbs for the lights in the rollpan). The lenses were taken from an older buick.

The Trailer hitch is hidden behind the license plate. Flip down for access. Hide what you can I always say.


Filled Stock Tail Light Cavity's.

Filling in the stock tail lights was a major improvement of cleaning this truck up. The original lenses were removed and the cavitys covered with metal plates, welded in, smoothed out. This really completed the rear of the truck.


Tail Gate and Bed.

The Tail gate latch was relocated to the inside of the tailgate. The hole was filled and smoothed.

The Stake Pocket holes in the bed were also filled (dont imagine I ever plan to put a camper or tool rack on this truck!

The Bed contains a rubber fitted mat, I have considered finishing out the bed with indoor outdoor carpet or something like this just havent had the time.
