Have I mentioned how I hate masking? lol

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Have you shot it yet? Looked before chow and you had it taped and scuffed. Can't wait to see!!!

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

nope nope nope! One too many beverages to pick up the spray gun... lol!!

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

looks awesome!!!
what color will be used for lines?

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Thanks Dima! They are white. Sprayed this morning. Pulling tape as we speak. Turned out nice overall. My usual 1 fly. Ugh. Fineline lifted in a couple spots on the tailgate after I wiped it with wax and grease remover. Nothin that can't be fixed. I throw some pics up shortly.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Alllllright.. busy day. Havin a beer watchin paint dry again. Little early.. no matter. Start with a couple after it was shot this morning

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Some of the box... had some breaches on the tailgate where the paint broke through. Sikkens M600 took it off while still tacky

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

And the cab.. I like it. Love it or hate it , its on there now...lol

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Turned out real clean from what I can tell. :chevy:

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Time for some decals. Doin a tribute shop truck type thing to my inlaws former Massey dealership.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Hey man, have you notice the emphasized lettering :smoke:

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

I think it turned out great! I'd like to see a pic from the front so you can see the whole truck, camera slightly above roof line and off to the side a little. (make sense?)

EDIT: kinda like my sig pic but a little higher.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Lol... Friend of mine asked me if I was calling it "evol" now. Had no clue what he was talkin about at first.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Thanks brother. I'll try that today... Should be able to open shop doors. Little too tacky yesterday.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

cool:metal:
lines look awesome!!
TRUE NiteMare :uhm:

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Thanks Dima... Hopefully we can get this box on without any damage.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Turned out great!! Nice job! I use the engine hoist and tie-down straps to move my bed on and off the chassis. It still swings around a bit but it's controllable. You still have the stake pockets? I hook in the holes at the bottom and use a 2x4 to span across above the wheel tubs.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Thanks brother... Pockets are still there... But tops are filled. Got some buddies I can bribe with beer to help lift it on.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

This truck building stuff is torture on the liver. Lol

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Liver, Knees, Feet, Back, Fingers..........

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Nice work on the paint!

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Lol... I hear that brother. Lots of trips to ER with steel wedge in my eyeball as well

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Thanks!! color sanding is gettin old

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Still sanding? Curious what the logo will look like.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Everything is done... Shy of the box. Trying to round up a few buddies to hoist it on this weekend. Decals will be done tomorrow.... Lay them on the cab and then cut polish the box after it's on the frame, and decal it as well. Not many goin on the box.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

All right... another beer another update. Stickers. Mentioned before about the tribute truck thing for my inlaws former business. Theyre on! Business logo on the door, Massey Ferguson logo on the box, #12 is for 2012 (year I got married).. and the mooneyes are for me. Color sanding done for the most part. Some hand rubbing here and there. Lookin for some recommendations on a good wax to apply..?..

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Can see the mooneyes a little better here...

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Thanks Mike!... a fellow fisherman I see from your webpage. Some nice bass there

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

You whipped that out fast! Looking great, anxious to see it back together.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Thanks.... me too

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Very nice :metal:

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

The box is on!! Shout out to some good buddies who show up and work for beer! You rock.. No dents, scratches or floor time while settin her home.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Looks great!

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Thanks!... here's a flashback. lol

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Sits nice. Always entertaining to see before and after side-by-side :metal:

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Now ya just got to get it out of the garage and on the road, is the interior still gutted? engine? I came into the build later on so didn't read everything.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Truck is looking great.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

have you driven it yet?

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
 

Thanks guys.... Haven't even fired the engine yet. Lol. Still up in the air as what to do for a carb. Was always an edelbrock guy. Never had good luck with the old holleys. Advice welcome on that topic. Interior all done.. As is all the wiring shy of under the hood. Engine/tranny done and installed. (383 with AFR heads/built th400). Was going to install serpentine setup off a 90's V8 with reverse drive water pump. Advice welcome on that one too.
