Projecto CHIQUIBABY!!!

Here is my CHIQUIBABY. I got this truck since I was 17. Now is time to make a change. I bought a short fleetside planning to paint the truck in two tone ochre/white.
Here´s some pics.

Well, contrary to popular belief, we are looking for well mannered and productive people to become citizens of the good ole U.S. of A. And you can always send your truck to me to hold while you wait 50 years for your paperwork to go through!

I was then mocking our most inefficient immigration system.

But most importantly, I would keep his truck safe in my garage for him.
