Paul I have have studied Wade's truck over and over, the extended hood, the relocated fuel tanks, custom visor and grille, air ride, even the windshield wipers the list goes on and on, it's a great build and Wade was one of the first to really customize a Wedico Peterbilt in an American way, or should I say one of the first I know about. Anyways I am still humbled by his, Nathan's (Espeefan), and Jimmy Powers (SweetPeteWrecke)r trucks. Someday I will get there but that seems so far away.

Speaking of extended hoods, this is something that boggles my mind. If the truck's firewall and grille stay the same width and you lengthen the hood the hood should now have a whole different angle or wedge shape than before. How do guys extended their hoods without making a whole new hood, grille to firewall?
