Awesome!

flamingbig10 · 01-22-2015, 12:12 AM

Thanks guys, no flames this time, I haven't seen it in person yet should have it back by the weekend

UKNOWME · 01-22-2015, 05:12 PM

No disrespect for asking but what does a complete paint job in Mesquite Texas cost? Here in eastern New Mexico it's about 8 grand IF you can even find a shop that will do a full paint job. Too many shops will only do collision repair.

JWall · 01-22-2015, 05:16 PM

Looks good! Bet you are excited.

flamingbig10 · 01-23-2015, 03:18 AM

Thanks guys, and this is before it was wet sanded, almost 6 Months since I drove it, All I can say is I got a deal on this job, this is how far the truck was torn down including the glass and cowl panel

LSX408 · 01-23-2015, 03:38 PM

Nice, looks good!

tinydb84 · 01-23-2015, 05:31 PM

I like it better without the flames. Looks good!

bbbc10 · 01-23-2015, 07:12 PM

bbbc10 · 01-26-2015, 03:20 AM

flamingbig10 · 01-25-2015, 10:49 PM

flamingbig10 · 01-26-2015, 02:00 PM

You never asked

bbbc10 · 01-26-2015, 04:44 PM

SCOTI · 01-26-2015, 07:15 PM

The OE interior will be a nice change. I have a decent set of OE 73-87 center caps if you decide to do the ralley wheel conversion.

flamingbig10 · 01-26-2015, 02:00 PM

Interior for the truck

flamingbig10 · 01-26-2015, 11:56 PM

I'm thinking about 6 1/2 van rallies and after market 10" for the back

If I had your drivetrain, that's what I would run. Van's up front & 15x10's w/5" BS for the rear.
