Re: painted frame... what do u think
 

I woulda painted it GREEN :I like it just for being different:metal:

Re: painted frame... what do u think
 

I think it green...;) It looks really good. You could say I'm green with envy...:)

Re: painted frame... what do u think
 

Must be nice having a rust-free truck :D What's the cab and bed gonna be, more of that green + yellow? Saw a '70s Kenworth highway tractor done like that once, it was beautiful!

Re: painted frame... what do u think
 

Love the green. Bolt some seats on it and go.
It's almost a shame to put the clip & cab back on.

Re: painted frame... what do u think

Re: painted frame... what do u think
 

Yes, but he got the brake hoses and the kickdown cable, that makes up for the intake :D

Re: painted frame... what do u think
 

would've looked better if it were each piece painted individually, with the hardware, bushings, and plumbing left alone to break it up a little.

Re: painted frame... what do u think
 

i agree... thats why im changing the control arms to tubular control arms and when i do im going to paint those silver and change all my bushings...

Re: painted frame... what do u think
 

nice!!! it reminds me of when i sprayed mine last acouple years ago:)

Re: painted frame... what do u think
 

nice i like that cool. what kind of brake booster did u run.

Re: painted frame... what do u think
 

just the stock style, clears the 22s,steering linkages and exhaust, even those the exhaust is crazy close:metal:

Re: painted frame... what do u think
 

I guess i am going to be the only "hater" on here --- black with silver, polished aluminum and stainless or chrome accents is hard to beat, no matter how many times its been done.

But its your truck not mine -- i am sure it will look great in the end when it is tied together appearance-wise though. looks like you did a lot of work filling in unnecessarry holes and such - that part is really nice

Now I say you lay up some metallic purple flames down the framerails :)

Holy Giant Grasshoppers Batman!!!!

Re: painted frame... what do u think
 

Not my taste either, but then again, look at my truck. Sure looks better than mine. Nice work! Nothing wrong with being unusual.
