Re: Its all coming together finally...Pics
The color is called electric blue, also known as "viper blue" a dodge color.
Didnt miss a spot, that was where the fender bolts on, has been sandblasted, several times over, not all the "grime" came out, so that's as best as we could get it.

Re: Its all coming together finally...Pics
Sweet!! I like the color and the stance, is it stock height? It looks like it might be lowered a little. It's always motivating when you get a pile of parts to start looking like a truck again.

Re: Its all coming together finally...Pics
OK, it is now 5:46 PM on Labor day. We want some updates and pictures of the progress.
![]() Just kidding!! Hope everything has been coming together well for you. Take a little time off and spend it with your folks and chow down on some good old BBQ or whatever else is on the grill. Good luck! Keith |

Re: Its all coming together finally...Pics
Sorry for the late response guys! Been a hectic couple of days getting back down to school with all the rain and flooding around here! Mostly finished up the truck on monday, still have a few odds and ends to take care of, looking great so far!

Looks like you have a long weekend ahead of you. Just take your time though and make sure you don't scratch it up on reassembly!
