On the grill - can you show me a pic of the Lightning replica - I might be interested in that.
Would be the grille in this thread, but painted red.

My preference, I think is the Patman grille, painted red. I like the idea of no emblem. Boy, I am really liking the 1/3 drop idea.

Never been there - but I'm sure I could find something to get into there! I'm going to be in Galveston in a few weeks - looking really forward to that.

Soundf like fun in Galveston and I am sure that you could find some kind of trouble to get into here. I hit a rock at the hotel with the right rear tire of my truck pulling into the hotel

Pam, do you realize what he is saying by 1/3 drop, means lowering the front by 1" as well as lowering the rear 3". Would look very good. It would require a front end alignment, which you probably need anyway.

well we would be dropping the front of your truck too, not just the rear....

as for the grill, it would be a replica modeled after this

Yes - I understand. I also think it would look very good.

On the grill - I think the honeycomb would be my first choice (if it can be painted red), but if Pat can't find one, then I would go for the Lightning replica as second choice.
