    What up Dustin?? I have two VIN plates now... and the guy I bought the red cab off of is still lookin for the title for me... The kid I bought the truck off of never registered it in Mass but he has the VIN# search paperwork from NH and gave that to me signed by a police officer... So I just hafta bring that to the Mass Registry and go from there...

    If I have problems with one VIN I'll try the other haha, Shouldn't be a problem though... I have a bill of sale and the paper work clearing the Vin from NH

    I'm goin for a stock look similar to this, it sits high enough and will be on a vintage type 36" tire

    I'm goin to paint it either dark highland green like my '01 or two tone satin black under the body line and deep blood red up top

    Thanks guys! I love this truck!!
