    for those experienced, what would it cost to customize a stock truck into something like similar to these? Super rough ball park figure would be more than sufficient. I’ve never worked with a body shop and don’t know what paint cost, frame stretch, etc.

    Prob close to 20 to 30k if you go to a body shop and prob 10 k to 15 k if you do it yourself. Paint cab be ordered from factory on a stock truck so thats not included in that price.
