Thanks guys.. yes, the headlights are what drew me to this cab.. and the fact that it is black and looks like a used work truck.
I have to thank Russ for the cab. I still have to fill in the back and that will be the extent of my bodywork skills..

I did get the rails predrilled, now I just gotta tap em.... I was gonna get the rails blank and just put the holes that I needed and have the rest of the frame be smooth, but I found these at an awesome deal so I got em...

Good looking cab! Can't wait to see it on the long rails. Are you going to leave the cab that color? Keep up the good work.

Yeah, the plan is to keep it black... I want a rough, hard worked truck look.. but once I get going good, the plan may very well change.
