I'm sure whatever you decide on the trim will look good, you have a great eye for detail

Great project. I wish you and your mom the best in getting through this. I have lost several family members to cancer and know what you are going through.

Those renderings are amazing. They sure give a guy motivation to keep going knowing what the truck will be like in the end.

Love the last rendering with the trim. Is that burl wood or tiger maple or similar for the bed? I like that look with the look of the emblem also having a "swirl" pattern....

i know you could go either way. but imho i think the gate looks a little busy with the trim. just tape it up there and eyeball it. before hand and see if youre inspired

I will be going with the trim but only the single piece across the top and the single piece on the out side of the tail light. I am offering the axles tomorrow. I am getting g the blower next weeks so collecting parts as we speak

Well I got all the brake parts dropped off at the powder coater and I stained and cleared the bed wood. Pics will be coming in the next day or 2. Just need to cut it and buff the wood. I am going to the paint shop to day to get the supplies.
