My new Hot Rod

Hey guys just go another 1st Gen. Ive been looking for another one and finally found the truck I wanted. Its a 1990 Dodge D250 LE Cummins 5-speed. Truck runs great like a Cummins should. It has some rust but I can deal with that for now. It still looks good. I bought it with the main intention on doing a Hood Stack. The reason for that is its kinda hard to be different nowadays since every other diesel you see has stacks. I plan on doing this truck on a budget by buying most everything used if I can. Well enough blabberin, here are the pics.

This is when I got it. Ugly hub caps!!

Hood stacks do not belong on daily drivers IMO. Only on pulling trucks or fast drag trucks.

I hope one day its fast
I work at a sign shop so thats where I got the decal and I made the front plate too. I dont really go to cecil much since im 10min away from 75-80 but exceptions can be made. Maybe in the spring we can get some action going

No I didnt lol. I think there bolted on so I think im gonna leave them cause I dont want to have the holes in that panel. And I think they add a little style and class to the truck lol.
