Now that looks pretty good! I could never paint my truck black though, It would cost me way to much to get a body that straight!
That's an awesome paint scheme!

Beautiful truck! Hey where did you get those blue dot tail light lenses? Those are sweet! Thanks.....Lumpy

KP1972 · 08-20-2002, 12:03 PM

take that program and do a light blue over dark blue for me!

trinic · 08-20-2002, 12:17 PM

Lumpy,
The blue dots came with the truck when I purchased it. The other day I ran across a web page that sold the lense with the dot already installed, but I can't find it anymore. You could also purchase the blue dot from a custom shop, and drill the hole out yourself and install it. Now, some people say that blue dots are illegal, and then some say it's not. Guess it all depends on the copper that pulls you over or your state...

Thanks! You did a great job!

First pic looks nice. Reminds me of 78 Corvette anniv. special color comb.

jay-dawg · 08-20-2002, 01:55 PM

I think the pinstripes are the right color. It grabs you but it doesnt overpower the rest of the paint scheme. I think a raked slammed stance would be pretty cool too. Like maybe a 4/5 drop. The rim choice is pretty good.

I like, I like.

Longhorn Man · 08-20-2002, 05:00 PM
