Lots of kool kustom touches. Those carnage pics are hard to look at though. That must have been dramatic when it let go.

I think you got this thing before 2008. I remember seeing it parked on the street painted black when I ust to ride the buss to school, and I graduated in 2007. Your truck was actually one of the reasons I always wanted a Datsun when I was in my teens
