Stumbled upon this guy today while out driving around checking on a job site. Never seen this truck before in town.
Hard to see but for sure a custom grill but had projector lights behind it.

Wood on the outer bedsides. It might look overwhelming on some stepsides but since the fenders are so large it's not so in your face. Kind of interesting. The tail lights are a nice touch.

This is the way to install a roll pan and Caddy tail lights. My 65 with a 73 bed and fenders. I filled that ugly gap.

Here is what I've been working on the last few weeks: Mar-k tailgate with hidden latches and arms, twin frenched 59 caddy tail lights, rounded bed corners and kustom bumper.
