My truck is basically done. Before and After Pics.

I started on this truck in mid September 2007. It was purchased from member Bobvilla for $850. I would like to thank everyone that helped with advise on the build and especially Bobbo for all of his time helping with the engine!

VERY nice job on it. Congratulations.

Love the see-thru bed option (just kidding).

Wish mine was as clean & as far along toward "done."

Re: My truck is basically done. Before and After Pics.

I love your truck! How much do you think it cost to do that? You did it in like 10 months. Good job!

As it sits right now I did it for under $7000. All of the work was done by me except for the engine, so that saved me a ton of money.

That's what you call turning a chunk of coal into a diamond.
Nice job. That's what this hobby/pastime/obsession is all about.

Re: My truck is basically done. Before and After Pics.

Love it, very nice work! It is so gratifying to do it yourself too, you must be quite proud of it as you should be!

BTW, did you get that paint code from Troy Trepanier? Because he would love it too.

Day-um dude, you killed it, it looks great!
