    The bottom image on post 67 illustrates what I hate most about a pickup truck build, not aligning the bed with the body. Look at the bottom of the window where you would hang your arm out on a nice day. That line needs to be parallel with the top of the bed. Not necessarily on the same line, but parallel. The image you are showing looks like almost every other yanked-up truck build that I have ever seen, like a giant picked up the truck and bent it in the middle so that the body and the bed are not parallel.

    Same thing happens on an early build, like a A or B model Ford, on the radiator mount. If the vertical line describing the rear of the radiator shell is not parallel with the firewall, then the whole mess looks like caca.
