Project Leisure Suit

Hey guys...I wanted to share the rendering that was just finished for me by none other than Carter Hickman...Carter's talent is second to none....
The name was given to the project because of the colors of the truck...not to mention I wore the exact same color suit when I graduated in grade eight....Beige suit and white shirt....This truck has reminded me of that suit since the first time I seen it.

Re: Project Leisure Suit

Nice!
Is it just me or does the front winshield and the top seem too rounded?
The top almost looks more like a 67-72 than a 73-87....

Re: Project Leisure Suit

I really had to look and say to myself, "are those actually rendering pics or are they just 2 photos nicely organized to look like a rendering?" I have always loved that truck, can't wait to see it keep moving forward. Good work to you, and of course...good start from crawdadfox.
