Sheesh, I have no problem at all with modifications Mark! I think I'd take a modified truck over the best original I've ever seen...so long as the modifications are done properly & by properly I mean done as well or better than Mopar could have done them & done so they look period correct. I'm not saying that I can't tolerate a more modern running gear...just that I prefer it to look, to the untrained eye, to be built that way.
I've had tons of critical remarks regarding probably every project I've ever built but that's ok...I mean that's the only way we can improve what we do. I want an honest opinion...always, regarding my projects & that's what I've always tried to give you regarding yours.
I mean my only criticism of your projects has only ever been cosmetic. You do a great job of mechanical restoration...just a few of the cosmetic details haven't been to my liking & ive always tried to point them out so as to give you my honest opinion.
The bed liner on the fenders was a bad idea. I appreciate that it saved a ton of time but it didn't look good. The modern lights on the new build were brutal but in general I loved that big contraption...the tailgate woulda gone to the scrap man had I a bought it ;)
Everybody has their particular talents. Some are more mechanical, some cosmetic, a few are well rounded but the most important trait in my book is to know when a task is best left to a professional.
Don't take any of my comments in a bad way...I only try to give advice that I think would improve a persons next build & if you don't like anything I have to say...just tell me to mind my own business :)
