Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

Probably a combo of the angle of his driveway and the way the fenders are on those trucks. That is my guess lol.

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

Scott,
Let me know when you are going back to the paint place.

Thanks Tim!

I was so excited about the wheels that I took that pic right after I lowered it off the jack so the front hadn't settled back down.
If the weather clears up I'll get some better pics with a real camera
Until then, here is one to hold you all over

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"


Sorry fellas,
Work has been crazy
And it gets dark so dang early

But here is a pic


My wife conspired with scotts62 to have him take my truck to the tint shop while I was in Tulsa working Thursday.
It's a super cool early Christmas present!!!
Thanks again Scott!!

Just FYI, I started some sanding to get her ready for some primer
Need to help Scott get caught up with his stuff then we will start the body work.

Joe, have you got a color picked out? I have not been on in a while and may have missed it but thought I'd ask.

Hey Gerald!
I'm still thinking a dark satin blue might be cool, or the good ol' stand by, satin black. Or I really like the GM arrival blue on the escalades...but then I get to thinking I need to 2-tone it since it is so long....
what are you thoughts?

Thanks racedaddy!

Some days I think I need to sell it and get a 4x4 crew, other days I think I need to keep it and get a 4x4 crew cab

Or keep it and convert to 4x4 crew! It'll only take a weekends worth of work!
