Re: cab back from painters

I love it! Is the blue a custom color, or from a production vehicle?

Re: cab back from painters

Jeffspower, The blue is from 07 ford mustang gt and the white is also a ford white that they use on there trucks.


Thanks for all the comments.Its kinda overwhelming looking at all the work that lays ahead but one step at a time.

Re: cab back from painters

FLEET here's a few pics of the bed mock-up The pics are not that great, they were taken with old camera.I'm lowering it a little, 2" lowering springs on front 4" on back but I think I'll end up going a little more in the back.I'll have to wait untill I get all the wait back on it and see how it looks

Re: cab back from painters

This is how it looks right now.close to starting it up for the first time.Plans are to get the cab undercoated and then place on rolling chassis.After that some wiring and then hope to finally hear it run.I have a lot of goodies already bought but also have a lot to get yet.I need to make up my mind about the interior color and then fertilize my money tree.
