I like it, but not for this truck.

I probably won't do it but what would you change

Most of the modern is hidden on this truck. I'm seeing a round bar shifter.

The voices in my head say not to.

I see what you're getting at but coil overs, led headlights, led tail lights, turbos hanging out the hood sides are all visible.

Even though what you say is true, I agree with Nate.

Paint the truck or paint the shifter?

Me and paint aren't the best of friends

No.

Gennie shifters are the proper amount of classic. No trellis. No. It'll make your turbos sound like a dry clutch.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.
