Beautiful truck Yezzi!!!!!!!

My vote is for the wide tires. The bumpers I'm on the fence. I like it both ways.

What an awesome, sick truck Yezzi!!! Killer!! I like both looks. I've been thinking about the 'wide' steel wheel look lately. About how much do those run?

funny thing is... I've met the guy who made that "kit".
It was in the Pasadena/ Houston Texas area.
his partner split with the molds and ended up making on
to fit the later model c1500 - called it an "el shaddia"
I know a guy that has one sitting in his warehouse still.
they started off with those firebird headlights, but got a later nose
change and used sealed beams after that.

Agree that it's not really my cup o' tea either

Looks good though!
