Looks Stellar Sir! I cant wait to see the baby blue against the chevy orange and chrome!

[67cheby]

thank you man, there will be very little chrome , all of the drive system is March powder coated black i think the only thing shiny is my exhaust manifolds i took my polished alt and water pump and scotch brighted them to give them the brushed look

you could take the altenator apart and paint the part holding the field coils , looks more factory that way

the manifolds could be jetcoated when the chome starts to peel in a couple of years

[67cheby]

Thanks Jason, the manifolds are polished stainless so they wont peel but they will color and as soon as i can afford to do the ceramic or jet hot coated i will !

[watahyahknow]

good thing about having the truck at sema is that you can walk around and point people like the companies coating the headers to the truck sitting inside , you be amazed wat there willing to do to have that truck in their booth for one (sema) show to show off there product (make sure you can add sponsors on that surfboard at a later date ), theres a small risk someone will damage the truck whille sitting at one of those booths though

SHHHHHH! You're gonna wake the haters with that word!

Love seeing the pics man. This thread is going to blow up when that cab is painted. I wonder how hard it is to "tilt" this game? Let's see some more of those goodies you're waking from the dead that you'll be installing here soon.

[67cheby]

Lol don't want to wake them ! My wood is half done being sanded, I saved $60 today and rewired my taillight harness , sanded 1 1/2 ony frame tonight, took some parts that were ready to paint to the paint shop, picked up my prime red and blocked slosh Tubz to have spray in liner shot on the underneath....ands that's all I got done after work today !
