I meant to say truck porn without the guilt. But I knew you knew what I meant.:lol:
The colors look great together. Are you going to add a pin striping to the color line? It probably won't need it. Nice job Allan. :metal:

The door gaps look really good on both doors. For some reason the passenger wasn't photogenic.

Re: My 1965 build thread

How would you get it to line up that way? Couldn't you just tape it before drilling?

One reason I haven't drilled yet is because I don't have any mouldings. I'm waiting till I get everything bolted down (fenders, cab, bed) Then do alot of measureing. I can reference off of the bed and cab. I'll then pull a straight line from those then drill. Then rub some paint on the bare metal and mount. It will be pretty much the last thing that I do.
