Thanks Driver...

But I can't take credit....The photo was provided by the owner.

I appreciate the way that the owner took the effort to blend in the front facing Euro required directional lights.

Nice job.

A short Banjo truck. From the ones I have seen, Banojo shorties seem to be rare.

Nice truck! Directionals under the fenders are the way to go if you want/need them. The farther back, the better....
