Re: Sneak Peek #2

We just painted the frame with single stage black. The hood is actually covered with dust in the pictures. Depending on the sun on how the flames brighten up.

Re: Sneak Peek #2

Tim,... that is VERY VERY nice. Make sure to post the finished pics. Also congrats on the recent shot of your stepside in the magazine. For the life of me,... I can't remember which one it was. Streetrucks maybe?

Re: Sneak Peek #2

Hey Tim...
I bet it looks even better in person. I might be in Morristown next week on a business visit so if I get a chance I might swing by for a first hand look and a cup of coffee. I will be flying into Greenville and making calls at Kings Mt., Maxton, and Morristown. Lots of driving planned.
