I like the way he filled in the curve of the stock bumper and set it back a bit.
Nice touch.
And that is a great two tone paint scheme for that body.
The interior and underhood are a bit of a snooze..
(but I'd love to have it and drive the snot out of it)

I like it!
It will probably sell for more than I sold my last two Studebaker restomod pickups for.
It doesn't matter. I no longer participate in these collector car auctions.

Yup, just have to make a black patch to put over the right headlight.

A beauty for sure!

I always wonder- after all that work and all that carpet, do the factory weatherstrips properly protect everything as originally designed? Or do customizers figure out a better solution?

Of course, a truck like this will see very little inclement weather; but I'd still want to be very confident that were I out in a rainstorm that pricey carpet would stay dry...

I would have no idea. But I'm betting it's pricey
