Took some pics today!

I stopped along side a wheat field today and snapped a couple pics. I thought I would share them with you all. Hope you like the pictures. Oh, and before you ask, I do still have the "Heartbeat of America" mudflaps on it.

Re: Took some pics today!

Thank you for the comments! It is a fun toy. A hand full to drive though with it so low. I painted the wheels Bronze and did the rings in White for something different. Once I finish the body, I will be painting it and the Bronze will tie in on the truck too. I have it dropped 5 1/2" in front. 7 or 8" in back. (Spindles & springs. Flip & Shackles.) The tires are 235/60/15.

Re: Took some pics today!

I'm not too sure. I didn't get met up with everybody till they were all at A&W. So we all ate, watched the fireworks, and headed home. But a good time anyway.

Re: Took some pics today!

You should have stopped by a wheat field that had actually been diced a few times....

All the green.

That's a good looking truck too!

Re: Took some pics today!

Thanks guys! I am really happy with it too. I just wish I would have done a crew for the whole family to go in. But happy with it so far. I have a burb grille for it maybe sometime, and have my paint scheme all figured out, just need the time and money to do it. It has come a long way from the farm truck I started with. And even farther from the Mint Green V6 Forest Service truck it started life as.
