Funny you should ask. I finally got free time to work on it. Between work, flying to vegas, and family trips I've had no time. Finally worked on it last night a little. after the body drop it left the ext cab area open to the elements with only plastic panels keeping out the elements. That doesnt work for me so I decided to skin it.
Before all open and dumb lookingSide sheet-metaledAnd now all sealed up. Finish welding and smoothing and Im good to go.

And now my motor dilemma. Want to keep a stock hood but really doubting it. You can see it above the fender. Weighing my options

You could lower the motor and run an edelbrock air filter, they are pretty low profile and work great. You will most likely have to fabricate a new base plate for it to mount to your throttle body, but its a great affordable alternative. But I'm with everyone else do what it takes to keep a stock hood on it. Here is a pic of my wifes truck with the Edelbrock filter....
Your Truck looks killer BTW!

Thanks man! I unbolted the motor mounts this week end and let the motor down to its lowest possible point before i hacked up the header and oil pan and to be honest some parts of the motor will clear and some wont. if I still have to cut the hood some I probable wont take the time of dropping it. I will probably just build a hood for it sadly. the lower half of the body on the damn trucks is just so small and the motors tall.
