I usually like the stock look, but this one just doesn't do it for me stock. Maybe, I'm just going through the change of life.

Re: I swear they find me......72' Short fleet.

The first thing it needs is lowered for sure. As for the wheels I could go either way.

Re: I swear they find me......72' Short fleet.

That's certainly a step in the right direction. May it please the King, but the sidewalls are a bit skinny unless a big time drop is coming.

Re: I swear they find me......72' Short fleet.

Thanks for the input guys, I really appreciate it, and I agree on two things...
1. The truck going to need to come down white a bit.
2. Those wheels would look good on Shawno's truck.
