Going to put the rear license plate smack in the middle of the rear bumper and so it doesn't just look like it was stuck on there, going to adapt one of these cool license plate guards off of a '49 Chevy car. Not the vertical prongs, just the piece that goes around the plate. Not going to run a front plate.





For the water pump outlet, Street & Performance sells a nice swivel neck option that you can position in whatever direction you need. Heater hoses are going to go into the inner fender right there and into the cab that way, keeping them hidden.
