I know, I know, I don't have a bed on it... The bed, which is now a new Mar-K bed, is still down at the bodyshop being worked on/tricked out...However, it's painted, and the ghost flames came out great! These Pics don't do the thing justice! Hope you Like!

Thanks alot! Hopefully the weather will be good enough to pull the truck back outside and get some better shots of the truck's flames. Finally, after 5 years and $11,500 later, it's got paint!!!!

Flaunt all the pics you want man. Are those new model chevy seats? Flash us a couple more interior pics and definitley some finished pics with the bed on it. Sweet.......Later.............Jerry

Riles72 · 01-13-2003, 09:56 PM

hey jerry, yes, they are new model chevy seats. We lowered 'em about 2" since they weren't exactly designed for that cab. Pretty easy chop job...sits close to stock height now. I think the seat is out of a '98 extended cab, but I'm not for sure.
Here's a pic of the seat.
