Progress Pics - She's Getting Close

It is getting close to being done! I have been trying to get it ready to take to Pigeon Forge this coming weekend. It looks like I will make it. Tomorrow I take it to the shop for a front end alignment, new mufflers and tailpipes. On Tuesday the bed will be painted and ready to put on. All that is left is some minor stuff and driving it around to break in the bad #ss 502.

old Rusty C10 - The color is Indigo Blue Metallic which is base/clear.

dtlilly - It will have a late model Sportside bed. The fuel filler will be on the inside of the bed just below the stake pocket.

Randy70C-10 - I really like the hood. I have to admit I wasn't sure if I was gonna like it when it came in the box.

The fuel filler will be inside the bed under the stake pocket on the driver's side. I got the filler from a boat dealer in the area.

Which dual fan setup did you use?

How about interior pictures?

And what was the offset and size of tires and wheels.

Just saw a article on putting the fuel filler behind the side marker light.

Man That Truck is awesome!!

For weeks, no months, we searched the net for pictures of trucks
with the right color. Never found the right one though.
Then we finally saw a 2002 Tahoe at a dealer with Indigo Blue
Metallic (color code is 39/WA9792 for those who are
interested)and that's the color we want.
Now thanks to you we can see how one looks with the color
we want. And it looks sóóó good!!
I hope to show you pictures of our truck in the next few months,
because it's going to the paintshop real soon.

Cya,
Edmond
