Looks great mr and mrs shadetree. It will make a great center piece for you dash!! I think you should just keep te truck in solid yellow, post a pic of it when it gets back and then ask away. It will be easier to picture it when the finished paint is in front of us.

duude, that is seriously bad ass! looking at the site now. by the way, I seen a truck either today or yesterday that had both kinds of flames on thier truck. I mean both as in it had solid flames then comming out of those were pin stripped. very, very awesome looking, the gauges and the truck I seen.

Looks pretty sharp. Really like the flags in the middle. Hope to see some pics when she's all painted up.
