    Holy shat, that is one clean '31 p/u. Work looks exceptional, will look awesome with the '34 grill. Cool color too. That flatty is beautiful, hell the entire truck is beautiful. Would love to see this one up close.

    That is an amazing vehicle. I find it very cool that you brought the truck back to life.

    Would you be so kind as to list the wheel/tires sizes, etc that you are using? I'm obsessing over the stance of my own truck.

    Dear sir,

    Your truck would make even someone who hates hot rods pitch a tent. Nice work.

    It's hard to say what's already been said a hundred times, but DAMN.
    I think what I admire most is the obvious dedication, patience and attention to detail. It is a good reminder to me to just cool my jets and remember that the best things come to those who wait, and that if I slow down and do it right the first time, I won't have shoddy work I wont be proud of and have to do it all over again for twice the price.
    So, thanks.
