Yes, after all these years of being a member on this site, I finally got my 72 together enough to take it to a show. It isn't done, but it's getting there. Let me know what you think.

Turned out really nice! I will have to check out the build thread. I like the fact it's a diesel, but not a big fan of stacks.

cheyenne shortstep · 07-12-2013, 09:11 PM

I think it looks awesome. The wheels are not my taste but they do look good as does the rest of the truck, must be a beast with that Cummins.

**72 tigger** · 07-12-2013, 09:18 PM

Looks really good- you've done a nice job with the cummins conversion. Hope you can put it to work soon!

I'm looking forward to seeing it at the All Truck Nats.

Looks killer Ryan. I love it! Not a huge fan of the stack though, (sorry). I really like the 6-359 emblems. Nice touch Bro.

JHT67 · 07-12-2013, 10:49 PM

If I ever get rich, will you build me one?

Thanks guys. I had to go with a stack due to the air ride. There's no room for exhaust through there with the suspension aired out. I'm going to try to get exhaust through there later on.

DEAL!

I just went through your build again the other day, because it had crossed my mind that maybe I should convert my truck into a 4wd. I'm not sure if it's something I'd want to tackle, but this sure is good motivation

BLAZERMAN · 07-13-2013, 08:18 AM

Turned out Great Ryan! Are you planning to pull with it?
