Thanks Dino!
 
Dino came by my house this weekend to help me put the motor in qwyktruk finally. Well, it's still not in. With a custom build and install, nothing is available off the shelf and fabricating things takes time. Long story short, I still have a few parts to round up.
Since we didn't get my truck running, we decided to throw my blower set up on Dino's white truck.

like i said, i just repainted it,so when bagged and prostreeted it last couple of months, i had to changed the look up a bit so thats when i decided to go with the two tone, but there is a couple of differences, i used a flat clear coat and i also continued the paint line staight across the tailgate. they are freaky close looking though! i will take some pics of it this weekend now that its all together and finished now, ere is one right after it was painted.

It looks real nice! I just checked out your other pics and I think the engine shot is great. It's nice and clean and I like the blacked out look.


Here 's a shot of the motor Im putting in right now.
