Sorry about the delay guys just waiting for the body to come back from paint. It shouldn't be too much longer.

Hows come you changed your mind. I thought you was going with the patina. Regardless it will look great I'm sure.

I would have loved to keep it patina but the paint was way too faded.

I like how detailed it is. All the nuts, bolts, and washers etc. are not painted. I put all the suspension on and then painted everything. Doesn't look near as good. Yours looks a hell of a lot better. Nice work!

I had some time to work on BlueJ today. I'm in the process of making this a dual fuel tank truck. Wanting to get as much done on the chassis before the body comes back; I remembered a little problem I had with OJ; the drivers side fuel tank crossover hose would droop down and rub on the drive shaft. So I decided to make a bracket along with some exhaust hanger brackets.

This build looks so nice, OJ was one of my favorites. Can't wait to see the blue. I plan on doing my truck the same color combo. Love the Snap-on Epiq as well:metal:

I'm with this guy. Another nice one, Joe.

How soon are you going back together with Blue J? I have the dual tank twitching stuff from my '74 if you need it, but it may not be coming apart for a while. It is the pull knob type.
