Truck looks awesome! The shift knob however...kind of scary.

What would even be cooler if you get that shifter knob and wire up red LED's for its eyes!! Truck looks killer and can't wait till ya fire it up and give me a ride to the Emmett car show!

Awsome truck, love the paint. Two questions, how is the paint holding up, and what size wheels and tires do you have?
If it's got rust & smoke it WILL make you BROKE
