As promised, here is the old 1930's fire tower that the Civilian Conservation Corps built that the state refurbished. A before pic and after. Couldn't take a pic from inside, they still have a little work left to do before the top is open to the public.




Before being refurbished.





After the state refurbished it.

Wow that really looks nice!! The state did a good job of bringing it back in my opinion from the pictures of it.

I went to see a band tonight at a local restaurant and I parked next to my buddies 2001 GMC 1500 with 33's and a 3" Body lift. Poor truck didn't stand a chance in height comparison against my no lift and 35's. :0)

Yeah, The hood is at least 1-2" and the roof is at least 2-3" taller. It's kind of crazy that's all a 3" body lift gave him. I'm not sure about ground clearance but I know I've got more of that too. I do like his truck, it rides really smooth even if it is kind of sloppy.

Same thing happened when I got my truck done at the shop the guy couldn't believe it was only leveled, my hood was the same height as the Chevy next to me on 6" of lift

Im on here quite often actually. Lurking mostly

Thanks for the compliments! Are you following me on IG? I find it easier to post updates on the truck there than uploading it on the forum app or tapatalk.

I have the retrofits, theyre just in a box because I parked the truck for a long period of time and a mouse bit through the positive wires on both my HID bulbs (yes, both of them). so in the process of cleaning up my truck I took off all my accessories (roof rack to fit in my garage, bumper, all my lights and switches) to get it back in somewhat stock configuration so I can just enjoy driving it without having to worry about someone breaking in and stealing something.

If your on Instagram follow my truck build: 01f1502wd
