    Nice looking Stude. I remember seeing it at a car show down here in Savannah. I like the exhaust exit. Are you running mufflers, baffles, or just straight pipe?

    You're right, the rally wheels kinda ruin it. But looks nice otherwise, I like the 6 tail light setup.

    That's a sharp looking ride. I've always liked those Studebaker trucks.

    That's a great looking truck. The rims aren't awful, just not quite right. The rim and tire size looks perfect. I'm imagining grey or mag 5 spokes on it!!
