I gotta hand it to you man, this thing is one mean machine. Hope its all you want and more. I'll get myself another mini truck one of these days. I've got a few that I have in mind. I like what you've done here, and eliminated the turd from under the hood. I'm a chevy person myself, and this would be pretty cool to do to an s10. I'd go older, but thats me.

Haha, it can be that way with a 5 year + build time. SFBD, Stock Floor Body Drop, where the truck is lowered to its body without cutting the floor and raising it causing less headroom....

Hear ya man... quality builds take a LONG time. I just hope that my F20 might be turbocharged before yours- but I doubt it.

Good deal.

If I still had a mini, I'd make the whole thing look like your front end now (paintwise). I'm a huge rat fan when it's done right.
