Really nice, love the ride height and the tilt bed is a neat idea.

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!
I normally prefer lifted trucks to slammed ones, but when they're done right I like them. This one is most definitely done right! Lowrider trucks are supposed to have tilting beds and those rims (Jada?) are the perfect choice.

i personally prefer lifted trucks like swifty but this is fantastic work and similiar stuff goes into doing lifts or slamsd
if you haven't done a lifted truck you should try it! and i might try lowering something if i can find a good donor

I like it a lot. I even like it in bare metal, but I'm sure any paint job you do will make it even better.
Can't wait to see it done
