first off. stripe erased the decals, cleaned interior, removed gay mirrors, put on new mirrors, tinted new tails, painted all new front end. blacked out and red outlined the emblem. fixed huge rust hole in cab corner. painted repair, and new exhaust, windshield, and 454 ss mags. still a ton to come.
