Nice truck! Congrats, I agree with shiny grill not black, personally I'd have to have a chrome front bumper to , but that's my taste, lol, if the 3 spd is a manual I'd convert to floor shift, 3 on the tree is fun for about a week, i know many would disagree but I'd leave the slant and add a cam, manifold, carb, and exhaust. With those gears it won't take much to move that little sweptline down the road! Keep us posted on the progress please. BTW, I hope you can get the black paint off those awsome sport mirrors, those things are like finding hens teeth!
