Been working on mine for two years now, before and after.
Well, that's certainly not going to get mistaken for any other truck in a parking lot!! I like it, unique. Please more pictures, especially the grill, and what all you did to it. You got something interesting going on there! Digging this!
Just noticed your from E-town, I'm just 45min north. Small world.

Thanks man, I’ll go through my photos after work and post some of the “progress” pics I took. There’s a fairly long list of things I’ve done since I’ve owned it and more to come!

So, the grill came from a gmc, I cut out the factory insert and used a perforated aluminum sheet. Riveted it in placed, marked out a pattern then used my dremel to cut out each section. More time consuming than I thought it would be.

I got some LED Jeep fog lights and mounted them to my air dam to a toggle switch (sprayed purple because why not) and then made a splitter, which I had to remake as the first one I made from acrylic plastic and it broke when I hit a bit of snow this year in the driveway. New one I made from polycarbonate.

I wired in some lights behind the grill into the parking lamp circuit as well as 2 side markers in the fenders which are wired into the turn signal so it has functional fender signal lights.

Reupholstered the interior and added some more lights, relocated the reverse lights into the bumper, made a functional roof scoop, vented the hood before I added the cowl, rebuilt the engine over the winter, made some door handles because mine were ****...I think that’s it..

Next in the list is a custom wiper cowl because they are discontinued and a “trunk” in the box of it with a wood panel floor.
