    so here are a few recent pics of my truck. they're not great, but all i have for now. i'm getting rid of those hubcaps by the way, they looked good in my head, but they never grew on me, so they'll be off soon. its nothing great, but considering the shape it was in when i got it, its coming along slowly.

    Wow, looks good! Love the ratrod look.

    Agreed on the hubcaps, but worth trying, now we all know how they look. Might work with another color or more drop, though. Think Ill try beauty rings and spider bullets (or baby moon caps) on red steelies come spring.

    Now, where'dja get the mirrors, and how do they mount?

    Is your truck a boy??

    the grill is actually just one we had laying around the garage, i believe its off of an old square body s-10, so it was a pretty custom install.

    its actually just old primer we bought in mexico a long time ago lol. again, just whatever was lying around the garage. i wanted it all red, but ran out, leading to the 2-tone which i'm not a fan of, but it looks better than all the random primer and sanding spots it had. as for the wheels, i have some jeep wheels on there, just slapped the hubcaps over it, so just gotta take em off and repaint them since they got scratched up.

    the truck actually has a really decent drop, but the tires on it are so freakin tiny it doesnt even look like it. we got those wheels for free, so i just need to buy some meatier tires soon. the mirrors are actually off of a honda shadow spirit lol.

    and yes, my trucks are always boys ;) :p

    thanks everyone for the comments!
