Neat build. It's refreshing that you didn't throw a small block in there like everyone else! Looks really good.

Re: Grandpas 1977 Stepside

I see that you got the custom front bumper with the lights. I know LMC and Classic sell it. I would imagine they get it from the same manuf. Are you happy with the quality of that bumper?
Truck is killer! I am a big straight six fan. Good that you kept it!

What a nice looking truck, love the color and wheel combo. What kind of gas mileage do you get with the six in it?

And please post more pics!!!
