There was alot of trial and error but after reading the forum for a couple years I finally got a Grand Hauler and joined the forum.

sweet looking ride...The color along with the chrome really sets it off. I would not change anything. This truck is a perfect example of Less Is More. Great job...

Thanks everyone. I love it. I would like to install more lights I doubt it will happen though lol. I can't wait to build another trying to talk the wife into getting one for the kids It just isn't going over very well.. I think my next build will be a 331 bottle since that's what I drag behind me all the time.
