Re: side note on my build

It's gonna look too nice to drive off road very much, and I would say
Wal-Mart would be dangerous too, but it looks like the shopping carts would
roll right underneath it lol.

Nice work anyway.

it's the engine bay...
if you see the fender well pictures it'll never be too "good for off road"...
the the body lineIdown) will be black on the exterior and the top half will be blue metal flake...
that way i dont have to worry tooooo much on pinstriping the lower half..
im in the process of cutting thin mudflaps to fit the factory locations for the inner fenders (between the motor and inner fenders..
that way i can at least cut down some of the mud in there..

Re: side note on my build

LOL, it's hard to hide money form a bean counter isn't it? I don't have that problem, I'm single. But the down side to that is I have to pay all of my bills by my self! Being a single dad I have the bills of a full family but with only 1 income. So it's good and bad.

Re: side note on my build

only 100 outside thats not hot. it's been 125 everyday for weeks here in bullhead city. the truck looks great but never to nice to go four wheeling. i bought a candy red 84 blazer one time that was never off road then took it to the cattle camp and drove it through the mesquite trees and when i got home the guy's wife that i bought it from cried. thats what they are made for.
