Bitchin build! I've owned 5 of these trucks-a 90 standard cab shortbed, a '95 X-cab, a '99 3/4-ton crew cab and now a '98 crew cab dually and a 95 standard cab. i just finished my '95 std. cab. Air ride tech susp., 20-inch bonspeed's, baer brakes, big fat sway bar, 383 small block, white with flat black SS badges and stripes, black vinyl interior with houndstooth inserts, black loop carpet, bonspeed billet steering wheel. Has a flat black finished glare shelid hood and a raw muscle truck look. Took it to Sema this year and it turned some heads.

I am the Editor of Street Trucks Magazine and would love to stay updated on your build. Good looking truck-keep up the good work.

Yep. Its Travis. Cool project. I'll follow the build. Perhaps we can do a Blood, Sweat & Gears project spotlight on it in Street Trucks.

Took the dash out to take out air and heater. What a pain but had to do it anyway to re-wire truck. A few pics of my gauges and my DD to.

I think it looks better with a remote mount. What's the scoop on the 5.3? It looks great but what did you do inside? Nice project you have going.
