Oh and everything i have seen and all the new post's too, this is really a very nice and sweet looking ride can't wait to see more

Thanks Mike!! It is a lot of trial and error, and bending, and sanding, and filling, and mock up. This hood doesn't fit as good as my other trucks did. I think because I shortened it. It fits better than the picture shows, the cab is just sitting on the chassis there.

Thanks Nathan!
