If you're alright with constructive criticism, I immediately noticed the wheelbase was off in the 3rd pic down. It'd bug the sh*t out of me if it was my build, but I'm not the one who has to be OK with it. Bigger tires may hide it some.

I talked to a guy one time who had a nice lifted '69 F100. I asked him what frame he'd put under it. He gave me an odd look & asked how I knew it wasn't on the original chassis. I mentioned the WB was off. He'd been driving the truck for several years, & said I was the only person who'd ever noticed (or at least mentioned) the difference. It was about 1-1/2" off in the rear. So maybe I'm just weird. LOL
