Dad's truck
Well I finally got around to taking pics of my dads truck. They are really bad pics b/c it was raining but he just got the rims put on this morning so I had an urge to take pics. lol. The mod list goes on and on but im sure you can figure out the obvious. 18" victory nascar rims wrapped in kuhmo ecsta tires. Let me know what you think should be done. WHat color should i paint the drums and calipers? blue or black

Its a 3.0 150 big ones lol. everything is stock but the trans was just rebuilt like 10,000 miles ago. The bug guard is there to cover up a little spot of damage on the hood and without it it looks like ****. i really dont mind the window shades. My dad really likes the tails though on it. Not my truck its his.

Get a billet grill on there. I have one on my Excursion and it really changed the look of the truck. Black for the drums/calipers. I would also lower it about 2 inches with those low profile tires on it.

Sorry bro but i have to be honest, i dont like it. The flame job is nice but the pin stripe flames along the bed are outa place. The euro tails, the rubber band tires on stock suspention, the chessy fake carbon fiber mirrors... im sorry. It looks like one of those "on paper it looked like a good idea but...." things. But thats just my 2 cents.

Thanks for being honest Grant. 70% of the stuff on the truck was on there when we got it. I personaly hate the mirrors too b/c they are fake and really small too. I am still gonna see if i can get my dad to lower it. He IS considering a billet grill now.
