Yeah, I'd leave the lip.

I'm just thinking about the fake business on the doors and the whole chrome wheels not going with the theme.

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

Looking good and do the wheels black. That would give you a bad a$$ look..

great build cant wait to see it finished

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

I'd like to see it when it's done, too... Not like I mind seeing it now, though.

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

Okay, went by there today to take some more progress pics. They got the rear wheel arch's in and the 88-98 gas door in also. It's getting there!!

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

it looks like they are doing great work. are they or can they do anything to address the rust in the inner bedsides?

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

It is getting there. Can't wait to see when the panels are finish welded.

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

Not sure Keith, I assume that there is nothing that can be done besides replacing the bedsides altogether.

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

Went back to the shop yesterday while I was in the area and I was excited to see all of the progress. The thing is I forgot my camera so I took some shots with my phone. They actually came out pretty good.

Last one of the roll pan

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

Progress is sweet are you getting excited yet?

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

looks like they got alot done.

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

looks good. what color are you going with?

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

Earl and I were talking on the phone a little while ago about that. I've been wanting to go with the Hot Rod Flatz Black, but when I went to their site I saw the Flatz Red and it got me thinking

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

no gloss? what are you going for the old 60's look?

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

Go with some color! Everyone does satin black. I really like their metallics- maybe a green or blue if you're feelin' froggy...

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

I know everyone does, but I like it. I saw a 47-54 that had the flat red on it at a cruise in a few weeks ago. It looked awesome. Could still do the black Line-X and that would look pretty cool. Of course I have tan seats not sure how that would look.

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

your gonna line x the inside? that will look neat flat red with black linex interior. i take it you are not running carpet and all the trim?

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

If you ever plan on selling it I wouldn't Line-X it. I think that most people would shy away from anything with line-x on the inside. But if you like it and are not worried about ever selling it, do it.

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

I think he should go with one of the flat blues. and maybe flames in the metallics

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

Yeah, but not sure how the tan cloth seats will look with the flat red and black line-x.

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

i hear yah i am building my blazer with ALL nos sheetmetal and plan to line x it inside and underneath for superior rust protection. i think as long as you have pics of it before the line x youll be fine if you ever decide to sell it.

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

its lookin great want be long till shes rollin

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

Can't you get the line-x tinted? Would look pretty cool if the line-x on the inside matched the red or even the tan. If you can't do it with the brand line-x, I know you can with some of the other ones. I think t-rex linings can be tinted. Might be worth looking into.

The progress is coming along good. Nice to see it getting done. Why did you decide to sell your truck?

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
 

Their sure is alot of work going into this one! I was just wondering why you did not go with new bed sides with the amount of work they are doing? What are your plans for suspension?
