That looks fantastic. If I'd seen that 2 years ago.........
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

I think the trayback isn't that great but it would be a cool base to make an LJ81 lookalike

shame that as most of the truck looks like it has been done well, those gauges dont look like they are cheap ones

needs to have the droside pickup (drastically shortened) would look better, but then i would say that

Yeah, a short drop-side that was colour matched to the rest of the cab is what I would turn it into.
