whatever you do, DO NOT leave yourself without door handles on the inside of your truck. a friend bought a 54 F100 and the guy that built it shaved both inside and outside door handles leaving no mechanical way out. he had an electrical short in the door wiring, causing the truck to fill with smoke and no way out. We broke the window and got him out but it was enough to scare me half to death. leave the door handles inside, it doesnt matter if you can get i, but you need to be able to get out. my two cents worth.
