finally done (95%) what do you think?
ok, so i finally finished the truck to the point where i was happy enough with it, it was really a practice job and got my hands dirty in some areas that id never been in before (paint, bodywork, welding, etc). so what do you guys think for a 6 month build (working on it just about every weekend), and not even having a garage to do it in
 heres some pics    check my link in my sig to see how it originally looked... pretty horrendous as these trucks go, most wouldnt have dealt with it lol. but i wanted something that needed some tlc so i could get at least some practice

Well if you have'nt done paint and body work before, you should be real proud.

Re: finally done (95%) what do you think?
hey thanks for the kind words guys... i did plan on keeping it until i left the island here, but looks like im gonna be a dad in about 20 days here so i gotta ditch some metal toys for the plastic toys here shortly!.
ill definately take a lot more time with my next build, which might be another... hopefully 67 stepside... if i can find one, but at least this is one more of these trucks back on the road that could get a bunch of people interested in them for sure  but at least ill know for sure how to tackle just about anything i can come across and make it look 10x better.
